Conceptions and practices, on school inclusion, of school psychologists and teachers

Abstract

Literature refers that, although enrollment and permanence in school are assured by many legal devices to all and any student, the Brazilian context is still dealing with delays and challenges to achieve a satisfactory school inclusion. It is often observed the insertion of children with special educational needs without the development, by schools, of favorable physical and supportive conditions to receive them, or without a real aim to potentiate their abilities. Based on the exposed, it was considered pertinent to analyze conceptions and practices of João Pessoas’s school psychologists and teachers. For that, were realized semi structured interviews, based on School Psychology’s literature, with fifteen school psychologists and fifteen teachers of public institutions. The results reveled that, although most teachers and psychologists show themselves favorable to school inclusion, their practices still distant of the inclusive perspective defended by researchers and professionals who have studied this question.
