To accomplish the goal of the essay ananalysis of the literature on the two following topics is conducted: 1) peer relationships in the school context, considering the concepts of homogeneity and engagement, and taking into account the three informal dimensions of peer relations: friendship, status and centrality; 2) teachers' influence on peer relation, considering their roles as protectors, ‘architects' or social referents, as well as considering their participation in two different pedagogical approa ches: the performance mode or the cooperative mode of teaching. It is concluded that teachers should concern themselves with children's informal relationships at school, as they consciously or not, influence those relationships. If teachers take an active role in promoting positive and healthy relationships at school, they will be promoting children's development and fostering school performance. Considering the literature, it is suggested that teachers should adopt a cooperative mode of teaching, act as social referents for their students' behaviour and avoid negative feedback to aggressive-rejected children to prevent further rejection.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessUniversidad de Tarapacá.
