SCHOOL FAILURE IN SPAIN

Different studies on academic level have been done throughout Europe and the results for Spain haven't been really successful. There are very high rates of failure and spanish people wonder what happens with students in our country. Since different tests have shown this figure, we can understand school failure as a problem we have to face.
  Academic failure in Spain show our country as a place with a really bad education system to other countries in Europe. Spain education methods are seen as poor and ineffective. he school and high school teachers are considered not to be qualified enough for the task they carry out. People from abroad tend to think that they only give long explanations but they don't make students participate so they're not motivated. Spanish students risk not to be required for high-skilled employment in other countries. If school failure in Spain continue to exist, spanish people will miss a lot of opportunities of working abroad.
  To overcome this problem, the Education Ministry will have to play a big role. It should make new laws for the teachers to pass more examinations to make sure they're good enough for teaching; they would also have to learn more pedagogy in which they would learn how to motivate students.
  Academic failure in Spain is a very big problem which is affecting students in a negative way. If the Education Ministry starts searching for ways to stop this situation, Spanish school failure might be reduced.
