A search on the school grounds in the country conducted by the Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV) shows that Brazil can not win the battle for improving the quality of education is not to convince first the main protagonists: the students and parents. In 2006, 17% of young people aged between 15 and 17 years were out of school. Of these, 40.3% to leave for lack of interest, while 27.1% left for work and income. Only 10.9% of them leave to study for lack of access to school and 21.7% do so for several reasons.
The study was conducted to examine the causes of dropout in the vision of young people themselves and their parents - from data from the National Survey by Household Sampling (PNAD) - and to assess the rate of school attendance - from the data Monthly Employment Research (SMEs).

For the professor Marcelo Neri, responsible for research, is key to engaged participation of parents and students to reach a successful conclusion in the evolution of data in education: "We can win all the battles to improve the quality of education, adopting best practices education, but if we can convince the main players - who are children, adolescents and their parents - we lose the war. "

Were made to students and parents questions like "why are not in school, if the need to work, because there is no vacancy or school close to home, difficulty of transport, or that do not want the school there is?" In assessing the teacher, the questions served to overturn myths such as that the poor communities of young people leave school between 15 and 17 years to work. Neri estimates that the worsening in the school, involving young people in this age group, is exactly when you join the opportunity with the need to work, or poor child in a city rich in times of accelerated growth of the economy.

The researcher in the study suggests that the young Brazilian has no awareness of the positive impact that the years in school may have in their future. Neri says that the average salary of a university is 544% higher than the illiterate. Who has not studied on average earn U.S. $ 392 per month, while those with post-graduate earns U.S. $ 3,469. Moreover, research shows that dropout is much higher among students who have per capita income below $ 100, nearly 30% of some 3 million people aged between 15 and 17 years. Among the 20% of the richest young, only 5% are out of school.
