Original Title:
Κοινωνική και εκπαιδευτική συμπερίληψη αλλοδαπών μαθητών. Η περίπτωση της πόλης του Κρανιδίου.
Translated title:
Social and educational inclusion of foreign students. The case of the city Kranidi.
Summary:
Inclusion is a philosophy related to recognizing the rights of all children. In practice, however, its denaturation is accompanied by difficulties that are linked both to the functioning of schools and to society at large. The purpose of this qualitative research is to examine the extent to which the social and educational inclusion of foreign students in Greek schools is achieved through investigating the case of the Kranidi region of Argolida. To collect the research data, 16 semi-structured interviews with parents of foreign students and 16 semi-structured interviews with teachers serving public schools in Kranidi were conducted. The analysis of the data revealed that both the social and educational inclusion of foreign pupils outside and within primary and secondary education schools is to a small extent achieved. It should be noted that the responses of teachers and parents did not differ substantially. The results of the research highlighted the main issues the difficulties of social integration of foreign students within and outside the school context, as well as the difficulties they face at the academic level. However, there are some factors, such as the individual characteristics of the students, that influence the degree of inclusion and determine whether or not it is successful. In addition, the length of time a foreign student stays in our country and the support he or she receives is critical to its success. It is worth noting that educational inclusion is a key factor for social success and vice versa.
