Abstract

This scientific monograph analyzed the role of teachers in mitigating girls' school dropout rates between 2017 and 2019. Thus, an exploratory qualitative research was developed with quantitative support, operationalized through the interview technique conducted with ten (10) participants, one (1) School Manager and nine (9) EPM teachers. The results analyzed through content analysis techniques allowed us to signal that the factors associated with girls' school dropout is: socioeconomic and cultural situations such as early pregnancy, and the lack of knowledge of parents or guardians about the importance of women's education. Regarding teachers' perceptions, it is concluded that teachers have positive perceptions regarding mitigating girls' school dropout rates by stating that mitigation measures contribute positively to school engagement as well as the creation of conditions that promote gender equality in classrooms, as well as the allocation of leadership positions, so that they feel valued and empowered, maintaining more attractive teaching.
