Özet:

Deficiency areas of children who experience developmental delays due to insufficient socioeconomic conditions, generally manifest in the form of academic failures when children start school. Early intervention services provide preventive care for children placed socioeconomically at risk. Research, examining the relationship between academic achievement and socio-economic level shows that insufficient socio-economic conditions are often the main reason of academic deficiency. When children at risk are considered, high quality care and intervention programs designed for the child or for the parents are found to impact the academic achievement of these children positively. Appropriate experiences provided through a systematic and planned effort at early periods of a child's life could help prevent academic difficulties and developmental delays in the future. For this reason, support services or intervention programs which are especially targeting children placed socioeconomically at risk and their parents, can create positive results in long term. This paper reviews literature focusing on the relationship between socio-economic insufficiency and academic failure.
