Resumo(s)
The phenomenon of school failure is a central concern of governments and
educational agents. This article, which is part of a broader research on "school
failure in the first university year in Angola" aims, at this stage, to achieve two
objectives: first, to account for the complexity and divergences that the concept of
school failure contains, and secondly, to characterize the dimension of this
phenomenon in the mechanical engineering course in an Institution of Public
Higher Education of Angola, in the period between 2012-2015. The study revealed
that the concept of school failure is ambiguous, it depends a lot on the education
system of each country. In any case, school failure reflects the inability of the
school, teachers and the entire structure to create privileged conditions for
students to have access to meaningful learning. On the other hand, it was
concluded that the school success rates in the mechanical engineering course at a
University of Angola are very low, not exceeding 40%.
