Abstract

In this article the Chilean public school policies on school social intercourse is reviewed from the outlook of the various legislative and programmatic initiatives on the subject, in order to analyze and reflect on the implications this has for the educational practices in schools. For this, different conceptualizations of conviviality and the educational policies implemented are considered within the framework of the current legislation and school life participation policies in schools. Finally, it is proposed that conviviality must position itself as a purpose of education itself and not only as a means for achieving results in the various sectors of learning, being necessary to generate daily actions in the school system aimed at this goal.
