The collaboration between school and families from the systemic point of view

Abstract

My “conscient purpose” is to give some ideas which have been developed in my theoretical-practical research about the collaboration between school and the families whose children have special educational needs. We start from the analysis of a school-family interactive situation on a systemic perspective wich helps understand this interaction complexity. From the basics of systemic epistemology, wich has context in mind to analyse behaviour, some strategies are explained. We can use them as a methodology to help families and schools collaborate always under unconditional respect, the recognition of the family’s capacities amb the affective proximity between them.
