AB The rate of early school leavers (ESL) in Andalusia is relatively high, reaching 21.8% in 2020. This will shape the employability of specific population sectors and, to some extent, other exclusionary dynamics. Second Chance Schools (SCS) are proposed as an educational alternative for those who have dropped out of school early.  In this paper, we will analyze the profile of SCS users in the Malaga province and their motivations and expectations. We found that the majority of the participants in the Second Chance School programs in the province of Malaga are Spanish women aged 16-22 years old and living in Malaga City.  The average drop-out age is 16 years old, and the main reason is demotivation and disinterest (29.5%, followed by family reasons (25.3%). The primary motivation for returning to studies is "self-improvement." The level of satisfaction of the participants is relatively high and has a very positive effect on other areas of life.
