ESPINOZA, Óscar; GONZALEZ, Luis Eduardo; CASTILLO, Dante y NEUT, Sebastián. Determinants of student retention in “second chance schools” in Chile. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.2, pp.7-34. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.17201.
The purpose of this article is to understand the perceptions that students, teachers and principals have regarding the aspects that affect the educational retention of adolescents who attend “second chance schools” in Santiago, Chile. The information collected for the study comes from 56 semi-structured interviews with students, teachers and principals in each of the selected Integrated Education Centers for Young People and Adults. The transcripts of the interviews were subject to an ethnographic narrative analysis and, for the codification and construction of categories the Atlas.ti software was used with all materials. The actors identified the most important determinants to promote educational retention and avoid students dropping out of school: the academic demands of students; affective accompaniment for students; and that the school is a welcoming. Place Finally, the authors identified the need to review the school reintegration processes for children and adolescents who do not adapt to “normal” conditions in the schools.
