School Leadership and Equity: The Case of Antwerp--A Report on Good Practices in Three Primary Schools
Mahieu, Paul; Clycq, Noel
School Leadership & Management, v27 n1 p35-49 Feb 2007
This article focuses on the good practices in three primary schools in the city of Antwerp, Belgium. First we start with a walk through the Flemish educational system and sum up the legislation concerned. After that we give a detailed overview of the pupil population of the three schools selected. Finally, the data from the interviews are analysed on three levels: the public, the school and the classroom-level. We study the impact of the Equal Educational Opportunities decree on the Schools and the initiatives taken by the school personnel to meet the needs of a multicultural pupil population.
