In some cultures it is more important and most likely financially necessary for a student to find work to help support the household. This could lead to the student not doing their necessary assignments for class, missing class, or wanting to drop out of school altogether.
If the teacher has not been trained to manage the external behavior or does not have sufficient background information or the proper skills to observe that the student has internal emotional problems, then the student could either be so out of control that they have to be removed from the class or become so withdrawn that they stop participating and have no desire to attend the class.
