This paper presents an analysis of the factors affecting school failure and dropout in secondary school, as relevant matters to be considered in inclusive education. Both terms are conceptualized. The Ecological Model by Bronfenbrenner (1987) is took into account to classify factors affecting school achievement, which might relate to the both school problems analyzed. Special attention is given to school and family factors as students' microsystems, as well as to other factors related to schools and families partnerships (mesosystem). Other factors regarding the exosystem and macrosystem are also mentioned. The paper ends with some suggestions to both prevent school failure and dropout and to promote the inclusion of the students affected by them.
