International comparison: Switzerland is the first country in the world to drop out of school

A country comparison by the Swiss School Principals' Association reveals that Switzerland is among the few countries that select children for different educational tracks before or during puberty. This early selection has significant implications for students' academic and personal development. The practice raises concerns about equity and the long-term effects on students who are streamed into lower tracks at a young age. The report highlights how this system differs from other nations and emphasizes the potential consequences of such early decisions.
