What are the main factors contributing to Spain's record low early school leaving rate, and what are the immediate consequences of this trend?

In 2024, Spain reached its lowest ever early school leaving rate of 13%, down from 13.7% in 2023. This is attributed to improved parental education levels and the success of vocational training (FP), particularly the increase in mid-level FP programs and dual FP, combining theory with company internships. However, Spain still lags behind other EU countries.
