Abstract

This paper offers a critical and reflexive analysis on an intercultural education model as part of the current inclusive school paradigm. Inclusive and intercultural education are presented firstly as an integral piece of a compatible and integrated model, based on the richness of cultural diversity; and secondly, as education quality indicators for every person within the Universal Human Rights and second generation values characteristic of 21st century democratic societies.
The bet for intercultural education as an inclusive school model becomes a pedagogical renovation engine that boosts the commitment of all the agents involved in the construction of learning communities, the design of an evaluation process for change and improvements, and the construction of a training model for teachers that is coherent with the development of intercultural competences.
This way intercultural education recognises the Universal Right to Education for Everyone. This education needs to be capable of creating models featuring democratic participation and social cohesion that go beyond the integrating paradigms in order to reach more global and integral models of inclusive education.
