Abstract

This article focuses on the school experience of youth with a language development disorder. Interviews conducted with adolescents and their parents were analyzed following a qualitative thematic analysis approach. Results reveal that, notwithstanding a few meaningful experiences of affiliation, the youth experienced numerous situations that point toward a weakening of their ties with the school and with others as well as an internalization of expectations and norms conveyed by the school setting. As reported by the participants, different organisational and pedagogical factors seem to play an important role in the construction of pitfalls related to the social sphere. In this sense, the results of- fer a different point of view on these youths’ pedagogical and social difficulties.
