Abstract

School support through the lens of family constellations offers an analytical perspective that invites reflection on how family relationships influence students' integral development. It acknowledges that education extends beyond the mere transmission of knowledge, encompassing emotional, social, cultural, and ethical dimensions. From this viewpoint, the student is seen as an individual who constructs their identity through experiences within various socialization settings most notably the family and the school. Consequently, this essay adopts a qualitative, interpretive, and hermeneutic approach, with the primary objective of interpreting the role of family constellations in school support for integral development. The findings suggest that family constellations specifically the bonds of belonging and relational dynamics can influence individual experiences. However, these interpretations should not be taken as scientifically proven explanations for behavior in a school setting; rather, it is worth considering that family experiences may be linked to how students participate, interact with others, and adapt to the school environment.
