| Popis: | An important, but underexplored, determinant to successful academic trajectories is the engagement of pupils in scholastic activities. A lack of school engagement is considered to be an early indicator of a problematic educational career and eventual school dropout. This article examines the added value of a specific community school based learning environment – so called community schools – in secondary education as a means to increase pupils’ school engagement and ultimately, their educational achievement. The paper concludes by discussing implications of the findings for research. |
