Sažetak
This paper is focused on high school students dropp-out in Croatia. The domestic and foreign sources for students’ drop-out in Croatia show different rates for the same period of time even at national level (from 3, 4% to 6%). The non- systematic methodology of monitoring is criticised and some suggestions for more efficient and transparent cooperation between schools and the ministry of education are made. Some research studies dealing with high school drop-out in Croatia are presented as well as their results, with conclusions and suggestions for further research challenges in this area. The main focus of this paper is on strategies and policy documents that recognize drop-out as a social problem and give a clear context for institutions and policy makers. Also, prevention programs and programs for re-integration are described and discussed as one of the policy measures that should be provided at national level.
