2. Why do learners fail

3. Lack of Motivation
• A learner who does not realize why they need to
succeed, will not succeed.
Bad Teachers
• No one ever wants to say that this is a factor.
While teachers should be respected, they should
also be challenged to meet the needs of every
learner in the classroom. Tenure can create lazy
teaching.

4. Peer Relationships
• Choosing friends that fill a void tends to lead
to either very good or very bad behavior. A
parent needs to monitor their child’s friends
all the way through high school. Just because
they are older doesn’t mean they don’t need
parental guidance in choosing what they do
and who they hang out with.

5. Not Asking Questions
• learners who fail are those who are not ready
to say that they need help. By asking
questions learners ensure their own success
and that their education meets their
individual needs

6. School Culture
• A school with low expectations will create
learners who will meet them. learners who
are taught to not care and are ready to accept
failure are much more likely to fail high school
and/or not apply to college.

7. Attendance
• If you are not at school, you cannot learn.
Parents who enable their learners by letting
them take days off of school are supporting
and teaching their learners that
irresponsibility and failure is acceptable.

8. Parent Involvement
• If parents are aware of the school and teacher
expectations, and can enforce solid work
habits at home, the learner will be successful.
Without parent support learners have a much
harder route to success.

9. Organization
• A messy backpack, no assignment log, and no
agenda of daily activities are signs that
learners are not active in their education.
Organization is a life skill. Without it learners
are being set up to fail.

10. Feeling Helpless
• Support systems are key to success. The
learner needs to have a strong adult who they
trust to guide them through their education. If
they do not have this, the feeling of
helplessness can cause a learner to give up.
Learner need to be empowered to be in
control of their education.

11. Too Far Behind
• Many learners who have a bad school
experience at one grade level end up like swiss
cheese. They have educational holes that
need to be filled. If this is not recognized early
the learner will fall even further behind to the
point that failure is inevitable.

12. CONCLUSION
TO AVOID FAILURE IN SCHOOLS:
Teachers and learners should work together and
respect each other for effective learning to take
place. Parents should motivate their children to
study smart for a better living. Learners should
be responsible for their own learning….
