Contribution
Heterogeneous ability classrooms with additional resources has been identified as inclusive practice which have a positive impact on the achievement of students, specifically in disadvantaged groups, and improving coexistence. In particular, data shows that these successful schools organise their classrooms in ability heterogeneous groups of students. Additional resources consist of the inclusion of all the available teaching staff and sometimes of other people such as family members and members of the community into the classroom. This support enables all the students to remain in heterogeneous groups as part of the mainstream classroom, overcoming streaming. Interactive groups emerge as empirical evidence of this kind of inclusive practices. In this paper, evidences of heterogeneous ability grouping with additional resources as an inclusive practices that exists in the successful schools analysed will be presented.
