| Sumario: | An education that includes death is lacking in schools, even during this period of the pandemic caused by the Covid-19 virus. The objective of this study was to attain an exploratory understanding of the school principals’ views on death education. The study, undertaken in Spain, adopted a phenomenological design, carrying out interviews with 7 school principals. The main findings were that death was not present, with a clear educational purpose, in their schools’ curricula. Hence the inclusion of death in education requires a change of perspective in death education, based on the knowledge developed by the Pedagogy of Death |
