Abstract
CARRO-OLVERA, Adriana; LIMA-GUTIERREZ, José Alfonso and CARRASCO-LOZANO, María Elza Eugenia. Technical School Councils for Inclusion and Educational Equity in Basic Education in Tlaxcala, Mexico. Educare [online]. 2018, vol.22, n.1, pp.146-175. ISSN 1409-4258. http://dx.doi.org/10.15359/ree.22-1.8.
Technical School Councils are chartered organizations responsible for the achievement of students’ learning, and the identification of challenges that schools have to face to promote their improvement. Thus, this article aims to analyze, based on follow-up and evaluation, the performance of schools and what they have developed to guarantee an inclusive education. A participatory research-action proposal was designed in two stages to reach this aim. The first stage related to the preparation of a situational diagnostic with participants from different levels and modalities (which included basic education: primary and secondary schools), in the areas of educational quality, inclusion, and equity. The second one related to a pedagogic intervention proposal during the school year 2015-2016 in 214 technical school councils, selected among 1,222 schools in the state. In addition to imprecise strategies to avoid situations of risk and educational exclusion, the results obtained identified school planning, collaborative work, technical pedagogic counseling, and leadership as themes to be consolidated.
Keywords : Basic education; educational inclusion and equity; educational policies; school management and technical school boards.
