“…These statements are supported by previous research, which states that the existence of adequate learning facilities for children at home is able to provide stimulation and encouragement for them to study harder. Thus, the tendency of children to drop out of school may be smaller (Majumder & Mitra, 2020).…”

This study aims to analyze the role of parents, schools, and communities in preventing students from dropping out of school in Indonesia. This is a qualitative study using the subject of students who dropped out of school at the primary education level. The data analysis technique used includes data collection, data reduction, data display, and conclusions. The results show that the roles of parents in preventing children from dropping out of school include: 1) giving great attention and affection; 2) creating a good and harmonious family environment. The roles of school include: 1) creating a child-friendly school environment; 2) providing school programs to support the talents and interests of students; 3) good communication with parents; and 4) creating anti-bullying programs. Meanwhile, the roles of the community are: 1) creating a community environment that cares about education and is child friendly; 2) fair treatment of every child without discrimination.

School dropout is a significant concern universally. This paper investigates the incorporation of spatial dependency in estimating the topographical effect of school dropout rates in India. This study utilizes the secondary data on primary, upper primary, and secondary school dropout rates of the different districts of India available at the Unified District Information System for Education plus (UDISE+) for the year 2020 to contemplate the impact of these dropouts from one region to different regions in molding with promotion rate and repetition rate. The Global Moran’s I, Univariate and Bivariate Local Indicators of Spatial Association, and spatial models are utilized to investigate the geographical variability and to find the possible relationship between dropout rates and the school-level factors at the district level. The outcomes provide clear spatial clustering and precisely highlight the hot zone dropout regions with high repetition and low promotion rates. Based on this study’s results, educational administrators can make evidence-based decisions to reduce dropout rates in hot zones of various regions of India. Furthermore, futuristic studies focusing on linking spatial hot zones with causal factors will add consistent data in assisting policymakers in taking necessary measures to develop a sound education management system.
