Erken Okul Terkiyle Mücadelenin 8 Metotu (The eight methods of fighting early school leaving)
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Our school is the unique vocational high school of Golbasi district and more than 200 students (231 students in 2014 year) are signed up in the each year. These students are graduating from the compulsory primary education without any problems. Students, who come from the compulsory education to our school, are not more successful students in Turkish, Mathematics, and Science lessons during their compulsory education. For this year, only in the first term of the 2014-2015 school year, 37 of 231 students, (16%), in 9th grade, have dropped out of school mainly due to failure. These students don't have mental problems either. These statistical figures are not very different in 10, 11 and 12th classes. The students, leaving school early, affects our county because the necessary requirements for the intermediate employees are not met. Financial expenses which are made by low-income families for their children go to waste. Leaving education early causes students to keep on their lives as aimless and unskilled individuals. In addition, students, who leave school early, are bad models to their peers. Thanks to our project, the percentage of early school leaving students, in 9th classes and other upper classes , will decrease to level of 10% per year in the first year and will lower 5% per a year, at the end of 3 years. For this purpose, our school teachers and administrators, the parents also, will be created awareness in Golbasi district and most importantly in our students. Thanks to our project, our goals are to raise the quality of vocational education in our school and to reduce to leave school early because of failure, by applying the innovative teaching methods in education, so we intend to increase the number of employed individuals. The subject of our project is the innovative education and teaching methods for reduction of early school leaving and the investigation of Dutch dimension. With this project, innovative methods in our school and vocational schools in our district is planned to disseminate, by means of observations, made in the Netherlands where most of the problems, in the field of education, have solved. The methodology, used in conducting the project, is transparency and openness. Every activity and writings in the project will be recorded and financial expenses will always be open to inspection. At the end of our project, by using innovative methods of education, our goal is to increase the school's success in our vocational school and to reduce the number of students leaving school early because of failure, by means of information, we received and experiences, we gained through the Dutch partner. For this purpose, at the end of 3 years, the fact that the student who goes to Golbasi Vocational and Technical Anatolian High Schoo, will graduate from this school, will be placed .
