Causes and Nature of Educational Neglect in German Research

The relevance of the study is conditioned by the need to find out the causes of pedagogical neglect of adolescents in the context of German experience and identify possible solutions to this problem. The purpose of the study is to highlight the main views of German researchers on the diagnosis of pedagogical neglect and its further correction. From a methodological standpoint, the study is based on the content analysis method, which is one of the tools for conducting desk research. The studies by K. Lissmann, W. Von Humboldt, R.D. Precht, P. Wisner, G. Kindler were considered. The main problems that ensure educational neglect in Germany have been identified: insufficient funding, lack of highly qualified staff, misdirection of skills and qualities of students, low level of social security, etc. An important factor is the quality of relationships between teenagers and other people (parents, teachers, friends), as well as their parents with them. Recommendations were outlined for solving the above-mentioned problematic issues, which is the practical significance of the study. In particular, it is necessary to: increase funding to ensure the organisation of the educational process, increase the number of quotas in teachers’ universities, develop a new educational programme that will meet European standards, but at the same time not harm the local education system, ensure social protection of all participants in the educational process
