Abstract

School is a key factor in promoting democratic citizenship to all children, who are the future citizens of society. This article focuses on the role of the inclusive school leader and the good practices followed to promote equality and democracy for all children in the school. Six primary school principals from Greece, specifically from schools in Athens and Thessaloniki, participated in the research. The results of the survey showed that good practices adopted by inclusive school leaders promote equality and democracy among all children through actions implemented in cooperation with the local community. The article concludes with a discussion, with limitations and suggestions for strengthening the democratic culture of all children in order to promote social inclusion.
