Equality and Social Inclusion: Educational Challenges for Today’s Schools

Abstract

This document was born from the “Factors for failure and/or success in implementing a ‘Primary school Gestation’ project”, developed after a study of six Mexican schools.

This paper analyses what makes it easier or more difficult for schools to implement a school project in Mexican primary schools. There was also an emphasis made in evaluating the role of the principal and his academic leadership; the degree of intervention by zone supervisors in favor of the school’s project; teachers and the Collective Technical Group; authority participation; intervention by assessment groups; a voluntary participation in the Project, and the causes why said project was abandoned.
