Urgency of the problem. Each country faces the problem of pupils who, for some reasons, do not finish schools. This problem exists in many countries of the world, and this problem is linked with different social values. Quick social changes bring about and even make bigger gap between parents’ and children’s system of values. The changes in family relations, the growth of cities, the increase of requirements in the fields of education and the changes of values cause the loss of immunity. A new understanding of education is being formed. When Lithuania regained its independence and when the Law on Education was established, compulsory education was legitimated. It determines that children must gain basic education or at least they have to study at school until they are 16 years old. It determined a possibility for a pupil to freely choose the type of education according to his/her own wish. During the period of constant changes the main features of a leader become the ability to cope with those changes, the ability to learn oneself and inspire others to learn as well. School is in a rather controversial situation under such constantly changing process. The reasons for missing school haven’t been investigated, thus, this topic under such great changes is really of great importance and urgent. The unwillingness to attend school is one of the most urgent problems of today. Until now it is not known the number of pupils who do not attend school. That ‘s why this problem should...

Lietuvos bendrojo lavinimo mokyklos bendrosiose programose pažymima, kad visas bendrasis ugdymas yra orientuotas į vaiką, jaunuolį, jaunuolę, jų poreikius ir gebėjimus. Todėl šiandieninės mokyklos tikslas — padėti asmeniui maksimaliai išskleisti individualias kūrybos galias ir gebėjimus, tenkinant jo įgimtas reikmes: savirealizacijos — savęs įprasminimo, laisvės, meilės, pagarbos, kūrybos, tvarkos ir darnos poreikius. Tačiau šiuolaikinėje visuomenėje mokyklos autoritetas mažėja, moksleivių lankomumas prastėja, o motyvacija mokytis taip pat turi neigiamą tendenciją. Siekiant atsakyti į šiuos klausimus autorė analizuoja vieną aktualiausių šiandienos mokyklos problemų- tai mokinių nenoras lankyti mokyklą. Mokinių nenoro lankyti mokyklą yra ne tik švietimo sistemos, bet ir visos Lietuvos valstybės nuostolis, todėl jau kurį laiką Lietuvoje sprendžiama nelankančiųjų mokyklos iki 16 metų apskaita ir sąlygų grįžti į švietimo sistemą sudarymas. Mokyklos nelankymo problema, mokinių požiūriu į mokyklą ir į mokymąsi, domėtasi visais laikais. Priežastys, kodėl mokiniai vengia lankyti mokyklos aktualios nuo pat mokslo atsiradimo iki šių dienų, o vaikų vengimas lankyti mokyklą yra aktualus ir tapęs socialine problema netik Lietuvoje, bet ir užsienyje, nes morališkai ir ekonomiškai susilpnėjo esminė vaiko saugumą garantuojanti institucija — šeima: tėvų abejingumas, nesidomėjimas vaiko mokymusi; nenoras mokytis, motyvacijos stoka; sunki mokymo programa; prastas mikroklimatas ir t.t.

Therefore, the goal of modern school is to help a person to develop the maximum power of individual creativity and capacity to meet the needs of his or her innate needs such as self - expression, freedom, love, respect, creativity, trim and harmony. However, in modern society, the standing of schools is decreasing, school attendance is falling and the learning motivation has a negative tendency as well. To answer these questions, the author examines one of the most urgent problems - students' reluctance to attend school. Reluctance of students to attend school is the loss not only in the education system, but also in general context of Lithuania as a state. The accounting and the return of the education system of students under the age of 16 who do not attend school in Lithuania has already been in solving process for some time. The school attendance problem s well as the attitude of students towards school and learning has always been under consideration. The reasons why students avoid going to school have been relevant since the origination of science. Nowadays it has become a social problem in Lithuania and abroad because the family as an essential institution for ensuring the safety weakened morally and economically. Parents became indifferent to children‘s success and progress at school. Lack of motivation, stiff school curriculum... [to full text]
