The paper analyses the perspectives of service providers in regard to a Portuguese project - Choices Programme (Programa Escolhas) - aiming to promote inclusive education and academic progress of children in primary school from a Roma community living in a low-income neighbourhood. Findings indicated that facilitating factors of interagency working for promoting inclusive education included political support, participation of service users in the planning and delivery of interventions, and informal and collaborative working relationships. Positive outcomes were found for children’s school attendance and academic progress, and increased involvement of parents in children’s education.
