Will paying students to do well in school reduce dropout ratio?

French Govt. is considering to pay students if they maintain good attendance records and reach performance targets agreed upon with their teachers, reward payments will be added to their class account. The government's objective is simple: increase student motivation and class attendance and reduce the dropout ratio, as roughly 120,000 to 150,000 French teenagers leave school without earning a diploma or professional training certificate.
