Das mit Inklusion verbundene Ziel der Partizipation von allen Kindern an Lern- und Bildungsprozessen wurde im Kontext des durch die Corona-Pandemie notwendig gewordenen Lernen auf Distanz bzw. ‚Homeschooling‘ erheblich auf die Probe gestellt. Im Beitrag wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie inklusive Grundschulen mit den Herausforderungen der Schul-schließungen und der Unterbrechung des gemeinsamen Unterrichts umgehen. Dazu werden erste Ergebnisse aus einer qualitativ-empirischen Studie zu „Inklusions- und Exklusions-prozessen an Grundschulen während der Corona-Zeit“ vorgestellt: In zwei Fallbeispielen werden die Erfahrungen von Schulleitungen mit den Schulschließungen und dem Lernen zuhause dokumentarisch-methodisch rekonstruiert. Die Schulleitungen werden hierbei als zentrale Repräsentanz ihrer Schule betrachtet, sodass die Rekonstruktion des institutionellen, schulkulturellen Orientierungsrahmens, also der verinnerlichten Handlungs- und Deutungs-muster der Schule im Vordergrund steht. Die Ergebnisse weisen darauf hin, dass die Schulen zuerst organisations- und kommunikationsbezogene Herausforderungen wahrgenommen und erst in einem zweiten und dritten Schritt die lern- und leistungsbezogene Teilhabe der Schüler*innen und die Bereitstellung von differenziellen Lernangeboten als zentrale Aufgabe betrachtet haben. Abschließend werden aktuelle Herausforderungen der Schaffung von inklusiven Lerngelegenheiten im Kontext der Corona-Pandemie diskutiert.   Abstract The general aim of inclusion to facilitate learning participation of all children has been enormously challenged by homeschooling and distance learning during the coronavirus lockdown. In this paper, the question of how primary schools deal with the challenges of the school lockdown and how they promote participation of all children during this period of time will be elaborated. Based on the qualitative study „Processes of Inclusion and Exclusion on Primary Schools during the Coronavirus Pandemic“ two case studies of schools will be discussed. Therein, school principals report on their experiences with the lockdown and homeschooling. Their statements will be analysed with the Documentary Method. Considering the school principals as the key representatives of their school, the focus is on analysing the school cultural orientation frame. The results highlight that schools are mainly handling with challenges in organising the general learning process and communicating with students. Hence, learning participation is considered being important after having managed these requirements. Based on the results, general challenges of inclusive learning contexts, especially with regard to distance learning, will be discussed.

Concerns about women educational leaders, their performance within primary schools, their approaches to leadership, including the hindrances experienced in the school headship have received few if any attention in Côte d’Ivoire. This paper analyses how women principals lead their schools and contributed to schools’ advancement in challenging situations that stand in their ways. The authors used a qualitative approach to collect data through in-depth semi-structural interviews with five female principals in Ivorian elementary schools. Findings showed that women influence directly teachers’ commitment and indirectly students’ learning process as well, particularly those who have learning difficulties. Data also revealed that these female used to create an environment and academic support that gives attention to children, as these learning conditions are similar to that of their actual life at home. Based on the findings, we assumed that women leadership could be a significant contribution to students’ learning course, which in turn positively influence the school improvement. That is even consistent with the literature, which remains constant in the assertion that women leaders own some abilities, such as being caring, attentive, patient. In this regard, educational practitioners, policy makers and stakeholders should pay more attention to women primary school principals for empowering them to display their know-how, expertise and talent useful for the students’ learning process. That seems a possible backup for Ivorian education system to reduce the low academic achievement and enhance schools’ performance.

The educative experience of people with disability leads the inter­na­tio­nal debate towards the value of inclusive learning contexts. Nonetheless, the theoretical and methodological principles of an inclusive education approach have to be outlined. Data collected using explorative questionnaires during a five-years survey in an Italian region's schools show a slow evolution of the scholastic context. From the perspective of Special Pedagogy, the qualitative investigation on three macro-dimensions (the diversity perception, the didactic and methodological means, the wellbeing of pupils) reveals an emerging development of solid awareness among teachers. Findings confirm that the inclusion processes at school are attainable only throughout a series of clear methodological elements: 1) a valorising attitude towards diversity; 2) an orienting learning process; 3) a plural and flexible use of both methodologies and strategies; 4) a collaborative work environment; 5) a continuous training process; 6) a deontological approach. These are the principles that allow teachers to support each student in the manifold itineraries of identity fulfilment, encouraging pupils to express their needs and to develop their abilities in a welcoming and participative context.

Blackmore and Sachs’ (2007) opinion that “educational reform needs to be seen within a broader context of restructuring in economic and social relations among the individual, the state and new modes of governance” (p. 1) is relevant for expressing the essence and influence of the global decentralization policies in Tanzania and elsewhere. The 1995 decentralization of the management of primary schools in Tanzania was the outcome of the World Bank’s policies and the International Monetary Fund’s conditions following the economic instabilities of the 1980s. Assuming that public systems are inefficient, autonomy in decision-making and competition are seen as means of achieving high quality and efficiency (Bonal, 2002; Carnoy, 1995; Martinez & Garcia, 1996). The need for autonomy, external accountability and competition has created new managerial roles for school principals even though their core function is to lead instruction (Lingard & Christie, 2003; Reitzug, West, & Roma, 2008; Stewart, 2006). This study explores how principals in Tanzania are harmonizing these roles and is informed by political discourse analysis and decolonizing theories (Abdi & Shultz, 2012; Blackmore & Sachs, 2007; Dimmock & Walker, 2005; Fairclough & Fairclough, 2012; Nyerere, 1968; Wagenaar, 2011). Qualitative interpretive case study is also used to analyze the principals’ experiences. The implementation of a borrowed culture in new contexts creates tensions; thus, the adoption of new roles in the context of decentralization creates conflicts and imbalances. Given that education is a public good, educational policies should be decolonized and separated from market influences.
