Abstract

School climate is considered as one of the important features that will decide the types of the climatic condition of the institute. The school climate attracts the employee and also the students if the climatic condition is favorable to work otherwise, they will walk away if the condition is pathetic. Marginalized society is a group of disadvantaged societies who prefer to live in isolation and they are handicapped on contributing to the public life. The students with marginalized individualities are at high risk of drop out due to different factors that will bring adverse impact on achieving the universalization of enrollment RMSA (2009). The review of different literature reveals that a series of strategies can be carried out by the schools to increase the retention of marginalized and at-risk students. It is very important for the school to identify the need to encourage in building relationships among students, parents, community, and teachers so that the students will be able to realize their potentialities and feel the importance of education. Next, the school needs to design different activities and programs that will make connections and build relationships among students with students, students with teachers and students with school. The school should mostly focus on giving importance on personal issues (individual) rather than in general, this will make a student feel attached and cared by the school thus increasing the enrollment of the marginalized students. For the students with a high need for emotional and psychological care, the school should be able to support and provide assistance without discrimination to all groups or individuals.
