School drop-out rates in Italy vs. Europe (ISTAT data, Noi Italia].
The percentage of young men and women who drop out of school in Italy for 2018 is 14.5% with a slight increase in the young women who end their studies early. This means that the national objective set at 16% for 2020 has been achieved, although the EU average of 10% is still a long way to go.
