ABSTRACT This article defines Danish togetherness, putting it in the context of Danish social and political history, and placing particular emphasis on the gradual development of Denmark’s homogeneity, on the growth of national awareness, on aspects of social capital, and on the central role of education as enlightenment in the process of democratisation. It describes the Danish school system as conceived by Grundtvig and presents ways in which togetherness is reflected there in everyday practice, contrasting it with schools in UK. Finally, it looks at multicultural challenges to togetherness, at the difficulties posed by migration for schools and for society as a whole and suggests how schools and communities might learn to cultivate a constructive sense of belonging. The viewpoint is that of a practitioner with an academic background and extensive experience of English and Danish education. This provides a metacultural perspective for understanding a very Danish phenomenon.
