Abstract
This paper examines the problem of school underachievement with particular attention to early foreign language instruction in preschool and primary school age. The study highlights that despite the recognized advantages of early systematic foreign language learning, many children experience learning difficulties that lead to poor academic performance and school maladjustment. The causes of underachievement are analyzed from psychological, pedagogical, biological, and social perspectives. Special emphasis is placed on factors such as insufficient school readiness, health problems, speech and sensory impairments, unfavorable social conditions, and weaknesses in teaching methods. The paper reviews classical and modern theories of school failure and stresses the importance of early diagnosis and timely pedagogical support. It is argued that effective assistance to underachieving students requires a комплекс approach involving teachers, psychologists, and medical specialists to prevent long-term learning difficulties and ensure successful education.
