Based on the study of K. Bart’s “Early Diagnostics of Underperformance in Schooling at Preschool and Primary School Age” involving similar works by other German specialists of different profiles, the article analyzes the reasons for academic failure, repetition, learning difficulties and adaptation of children to school in Germany. Special attention is paid to the methodology of studying this phenomenon and approaches to its elimination.
