Abstract	According to the European Commission’s “Europe 2020” strategy, the early school leaving (ESL) rate in European Union (EU) Member States must be reduced to a maximum of 10 per cent by 2020. This paper proposes a nonlinear distribution method based on dynamic targets for reducing the percentage of early school leavers. The aim of this method is to provide policymakers with alternatives in terms of transferring the EU-wide headline target to individual national targets. Weighting was based on four indicators: ESL rate, unemployment rate, expenditure on education as a percentage of the gross domestic product (GDP), and expenditure on schools per student. As a result, nine possible scenarios for ESL reduction have been constructed for each of the EU Member States in three groups: the whole EU up to June 2013 (EU27), EU Member States which joined before 30 April 2004 (EU15) and EU Member States which joined after 30 April 2004 (EU12). This method allows the European policy to be translated into specific national targets that would converge in the aggregate goal.Proposition d’objectifs nationaux dans le cadre européen de réduction de la déscolarisation précoce – La Commission européenne préconise dans sa stratégie « Europe 2020 » un abaissement du taux de sortie précoce du système scolaire à moins de 10 % d’ici 2020 dans les États membres de l’Union européenne. Les auteurs de cet article proposent une méthode de distribution non linéaire à partir d’objectifs dynamiques, qui vise à réduire la proportion des jeunes quittant prématurément l’école. Cette méthode a pour but de fournir aux décideurs des alternatives permettant de traduire l’objectif européen en objectifs nationaux. La pondération a été effectuée en fonction de quatre indicateurs : le taux de l’abandon scolaire prématuré (ASP), le taux de chômage, la dépense éducative en termes de pourcentage du produit intérieur brut (PIB), et la dépense scolaire par élève. Neuf scénarios en ont été tirés pour la réduction de l’ASP dans chacun des États membres répartis en trois groupes : l’ensemble des pays de l’UE avant juin 2013 (UE 27), les États devenus membres de l’UE avant le 30 avril 2004 (UE 15) et les États entrés dans l’UE après le 30 avril 2004 (UE 12). Cette méthode permet de transposer la politique européenne en objectifs nationaux pour converger vers l’objectif européen.Propuesta de valores objetivos nacionales en el marco del objetivo europeo de reducción del abandono educativo prematuro – La Comisión Europea estableció en la Estrategia “Europa 2020” que los Estados miembros deben reducir la tasa de abandono escolar prematuro (AEP) como mínimo al 10% en 2020. En este artículo se propone un método de distribución no lineal, en función de valores objetivos dinámicos, para reducir el porcentaje de la población que abandona prematuramente sus estudios. El objetivo de este método es ofrecer a los responsables políticos alternativas para traducir el valor objetivo global de la UE a valores objetivos nacionales. La ponderación se ha realizado en función de cuatro indicadores: tasa de AEP, tasa de desempleo, gasto en educación como porcentaje del producto interno bruto (PIB), y gasto escolar por alumno. Como resultado se obtuvieron nueve propuestas de reducción de la tasa de AEP para cada uno de los países miembros en tres grupos: la Unión Europea en su conjunto antes de junio de 2013 (EU27), los países miembros antes del 30 de abril de 2004 (EU15) y los países miembros que se integraron después del 30 de abril de 2004 (EU12). Este método permitirá traducir la política europea a valores objetivos nacionales, que convergerían hacia el valor objetivo global.
