Places which possess such values, always constitute a happy synthesis of culture and traditions, which take roots in the territory, and make it unique in its identity. The surrounding countryside is dominated by simple rural architecture and by the “injuries” inflicted upon the territory by the mining operated in the first half of the 20th century, which the residents still recall. To create the uniqueness of this place, which the sailors call Cape Massa, and the farmers, Villazzano, there are numerous contributing architectural factors from different periods and cultures: from the ruins of the villa from the Roman Empire period (located near Marina di Puolo), to the evidence of the influence of the Spanish Vice-Kingdom and the witnessing of the pirate attacks from the tower constructed in the 16th century, up till the elegant Liberty design of the splendid Villa Angelina which lends its name to the entire area. The territory of Villa Angelina is the place which relays the sensations, the perceptions, the memories of important men and simple people who together have lived for centuries in an exclusive and overwhelming territory, which, with good reason, is considered one of the most enchanting spots on the Sorrento peninsula. From the study emerged strong communicative barriers between teachers and students that could lead teachers to stigmatize low achievers in their academic failure, ingenerating lack of self-esteem and disengagement in young people.Every place tells a story, that of those who have lived in it. This exploratory study investigates teachers’ perceptions and conceptualizations of low educational achievers in upper secondary schools, analysing their response to the issues connected to low attainment in terms of teaching strategies. Therefore, more research is needed that sheds lights on teachers’ role in dealing with low educational achievers.

Whereas in France the role of the school is crucial into tackling NEETs, in Italy the initiatives are mainly carried out by local authorities and small and medium enterprises. As in France many different factors influence it, but the prevailing two are the skills mismatch and the youth generations’ discouragement. The NEETs phenomenon in Italy is not a recent one, but it increased dramatically after the Global Financial Crisis.
