This paper aims to establish the onset of protective strategies of maintenance of Self-Esteem after school failure, following the theoretical approach of social identity, among 6th grade pupils enrolled in a public school. The data analysis conducted within this study shows that pupils with repeated school failure develop social relations among their peers which exhibit the some Self-Esteem values, poorer expectancies and a poorer attitude toward school and school work when comparing with high achievers.

Palabras clave : Self-Esteem; Self-Concept; Social Identity.
