The increasing diversity of students in our schools have brought school leaders to realise the importance of investing their time and energy in Intercultural Education. The paper examines the perception of eight successful school leaders in their daily quest of weaving intercultural practices in their schools and highlights the factors which contributed to this success. Interview analysis suggests that school leaders have heightened awareness of need for Intercultural Education and emphasise the benefits to other educational stakeholders. They stressed the need to channel more resources to fund projects that enhance the multicultural environment of their schools and placed strong emphasis on the need to train teachers in culturally responsive pedagogical practices. The paper concludes by suggesting ways to augment research in intercultural education, thus providing a strong knowledge base for future practitioners.
