| Abstract [eng] |
General education programs of Lithuania state, that all general education is oriented to children, young people, their needs and abilities. Therefore, the goal of modern school is to help a person to develop the maximum power of individual creativity and capacity to meet the needs of his or her innate needs such as self - expression, freedom, love, respect, creativity, trim and harmony. However, in modern society, the standing of schools is decreasing, school attendance is falling and the learning motivation has a negative tendency as well. To answer these questions, the author examines one of the most urgent problems - students' reluctance to attend school. Reluctance of students to attend school is the loss not only in the education system, but also in general context of Lithuania as a state. The accounting and the return of the education system of students under the age of 16 who do not attend school in Lithuania has already been in solving process for some time. The school attendance problem s well as the attitude of students towards school and learning has always been under consideration. The reasons why students avoid going to school have been relevant since the origination of science. Nowadays it has become a social problem in Lithuania and abroad because the family as an essential institution for ensuring the safety weakened morally and economically. Parents became indifferent to children‘s success and progress at school. Lack of motivation, stiff school curriculum, poor microclimate and other reasons cause indisposition towards school attendance. That is why the author sets the hypothesis that students' reluctance to attend school not only leads to the family or the motivation of the learning factors, but also a significant impact has the atmosphere of a modern school and the student's relation with it. The author also analyzes various scientific literature, legislation, and reviews students' attendance problem at Vladas Jurgutis secondary school of Palanga, elicits the main factors that affect school attendance at the above mentioned school and presents the results of a survey, which clearly demonstrates dominance between the school relations including family and learning factors. |
