Abstract: In recent years, educational contexts have gained attention in fostering inclusive and sustainable learning. This study analyses the relationships between parental involvement, classroom climate, attention to student diversity and sustainable education. The opinions of 1369 Spanish parents were collected. Applying structural equation modelling to analyse the data has shown that a positive classroom climate has a significant effect on the quality of attention to student diversity and parental involvement. Sustainable education is also influenced by classroom climate and attention to student diversity. Parental involvement was also found to have a significant mediating effect on the relationship between classroom climate and attention to student diversity. Finally, attention to student diversity also exerts a mediating effect on the relationship between classroom climate and achieving sustainable education. The results underscore the need for deeper analysis of these interrelated variables, emphasising that families, teachers and students form a unified whole.
