SCHOOL MANAGEMENT AND LEADERSHIP: THE ROLE OF THE PRINCIPAL IN SCHOOL SUCCESS

Abstract

This study addressed the problem of the difficulty in implementing management practices that promote equity and inclusion in schools. The general objective was to analyze how school management practices could contribute to the promotion of inclusive education. The methodology adopted consisted of a bibliographic review, in which works by various authors who discussed school management and its relationship with inclusion were selected and analyzed. The results indicated that communication between the school and the family is a determining factor for the success of management practices. Schools that implemented participatory management strategies and used technologies to facilitate communication obtained positive results in the inclusion of students. The analysis revealed that the engagement of the school community and the appreciation of the contributions of all actors involved favored the construction of a collaborative educational environment. The final considerations highlighted the importance of school management that prioritizes inclusion and equity, emphasizing that additional studies are needed to broaden the understanding of management practices and their impact in different contexts.
