This article shows the results of an investigation referred to the perception of Chilean students at school coexistence, belonging to highly vulnerable establishments are presented, comparing the perception of those who present special educational needs of a transitory type (n = 47) and permanent type (n = 24), compared to those with typical development (n = 546). The degree of predictability that the perceived school coexistence could have regarding its academic performance was analyzed. The analyzes confirm that students with Specific Educational Support Needs have a more unfavorable perception in almost all the dimensions analyzed. A linear regression analysis shows that 26.2 % of the variance of their academic performance can be explained by the variables incorporated in the model, highlighting the important and positive role of class attendance and the negative weight of situations of indiscipline perceived when inside the classroom.
