Summary: | The increasing assessments and competition between countries and schools have actualized a focus on how schools handle low achieving children. Different discourses claim their knowledge in order to find the best solution to how the country can compete successively. By using a discourse analytic approach it is possible to scrutinize the process of continuously shaped and reshaped varieties of explanation models and thought systems, constructed to make sense and meaning when teachers are talking about a school for all navigating amongst different discourses striving for hegemony. The analysis model is created with the intention of constituting a tool for the analysis of these processes and linguistic activities. The basic data for analysis includes transcriptions from group conversations with 17 teachers initiated by the reading of official texts where the challenge to educate for plurality is formulated. In an example of analysis it is shown how discourses intertwine in a process where pupils concerned as having attention disorders are discussed related to the construction of an educational setting.
