| dc.description.abstract | The study seeks to develop a critical understanding of the causes of
attrition among Further Education (FE) students in Ireland. The
causes of non-persistence, which are outside of the control of FE
Colleges and the areas of influence that reside within the remit of the
College are explored. The issues of both academic and social
integration, which is expounded by the leading theorists on student
attrition, are considered. Recommendations and strategies, which
could be implemented at institutional level to raise levels of
persistence, are explored. | en |
