The purpose of this study is to identify how primary school teachers understand the importance of inclusive education and the benefits of the collaboration between the class teachers and the support teachers. In order to identify the social representations of primary school teachers regarding the cooperation with the support teachers, we have used a questionnaire-based inquiry. We have organised the data into a case study at the level of primary school education. The responses to the open questions offered by the investigated teachers allowed a dramaturgical approach to the roles and the responsibilities of the actors in special education. Our results enhance the benefits of integration of students with special educational needs in the conditions of a distributed responsibility between parents, class teachers and support teachers. Therefore, the qualitative analysis of the written responses of primary school teachers reveals the need of continuous training in aspects related to special educational needs. Keywords: Special educational needs, support teachers, primary school education.

La escuela, como institución, se encuentra en tela de juicio por parte de algunos sectores críticos de la sociedad que, desde el marco explicativo que ofrecen las denominadas teorías de la desescolarización, son capaces de organizarse y crear redes ciudadanas para proveer de forma privada la educación de sus hijos/as desde unos determinados modelos organizativos y pedagógicos. El propósito de este trabajo es el de identificar, mediante el análisis de un estudio de caso, el modelo organizativo (definido por su misión, visión y valores) utilizado en un proyecto de educación alternativa para la etapa de educación infantil con el objetivo de reflexionar sus implicaciones pedagógicas y organizativas. Concluimos señalando cómo se confía en exceso en el potencial educativo del contexto en base a los intereses y motivaciones de los educados, se minusvalora la capacidad de innovación pedagógica y organizativa del sistema estatal de educación, existe la necesidad de establecer mecanismos capaces de mejorar la participación y se constata la pretensión, quizás irreal, de mantener cierta neutralidad ideológica en el proyecto. Nowadays the institution of the School is being questioned by some critical sectors of society who, by drawing on the explanatory framework put forward by the so-called deschooling theories, are able to organize themselves and create citizen networks in order to provide privately for the education of their children within specific organizational and pedagogical models. The purpose of this case study is to identify the organizational model (defined by its mission, vision and values) used in an alternative education project for pre-primary school education with the aim of reflecting on its pedagogical and organizational implications. We conclude by pointing out that there exists an excessive amount of confidence in the context’s educational potential based on the interests and motivations of the learners. In addition, the capacity for pedagogical and organizational innovation of the State education system is underestimated. There is, furthermore, a need to establish mechanisms capable of improving participation. Finally, the claim, perhaps unrealistic, of maintaining a certain ideological neutrality in the project is also observed.
