The RESL. EU (Reducing Early School Leaving in the EU) project’s final conference is inviting scholars that have studied the mechanisms and processes influencing a student’s decision to leave school or training early, to attend their final conference. Those analysing the processes behind a school leaver's decision to enrol in the alternative learning arenas unrelated to regular secondary schools will also find the event of interest.

Topics to be aired at the conference include:

- Early school leaving from an institutional (comparative) perspective

- Preventive and intervention measures to reduce (risk of) early school leaving

- Perceptions, views and ideas of young adults’ past educational experiences and future expectations

- Transitions and trajectories

- Early school leaving from a policy perspective

- Early school leaving and school cultures

The conference aims to analyse the findings retrieved from the RESL. eu project in light of the current state of the art of research on early school leaving in Europe with scholars and policy makers working on this topic. The project collected data in seven countries (Belgium, the Netherlands, Portugal, United Kingdom, Spain, Poland and Sweden) and reflected, together with expert teams in Austria and Hungary, on all aspects related to the reduction of early school leaving in European educational systems.
