Sammendrag
Schools set conditions for education on Sámi history, languages, culture, society, and rights. In this article, we investigate experiences with these topics, through interviews with teachers from six different schools in Norway; three in Northern Norway and three in Eastern Norway. The teachers’ practices are influenced by the interplay between, among others, curricula, teaching resources, sense of place and belonging, and Indigenous perspectives. These can be understood as conditions for anchoring Sámi topics in education practices. We argue that there is an ongoing development in schools towards such an anchoring, which contributes to inclusive education practices. Therefore, we place our analysis into a larger discussion on competency on Sámi topics in school and the possibility of including Indigenous perspectives in how we understand inclusive classrooms.
