Standards are depressed each time a single able underachiever demonstrates a competence that is below his or her real potential. It lowers morale in that the progress of the whole school is reduced proportionately in line with the able pupils who aren't achieving their real potential, and resources are wasted every time these pupils start misbehaving or creating problems in school. 606 $aUnderachievers 606 $aMotivation in education 606 $aSlow learning children$xEducation 615 0$aUnderachievers. 615 0$aMotivation in education. 615 0$aSlow learning children$xEducation. 676 $a371.2/8/0941 700 $aPomerantz$b Michael.$01479248 701 $aPomerantz$b Kathryn Anne$01479249 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786039003321 996 $aListening to able underachievers$93695289 997 $aUNINA
