Abstract
This research aims to know and analyze the performance of the school psychologist in Student Assistance at the Federal Center of Technological Education of Minas Gerais (Cefet-MG) in the light of Critical School Psychology. We conducted a documentary survey and semi-structured interviews with managers, technicians, teachers, a mother and students.After transcribing the interviews, we performed content analysis, and organized three thematic axes: 1) The constitution of Student Assistance in Cefet-MG Araxá; 2) Student Assistance according to some professionals of the institution and 3) About the school psychologist at Cefet-MG Araxá. Student Assistance is associated with student care and, still, little is known about the possibilities of action for the benefit of teachers and technicians. By giving educational actors the opportunity to participate, reflect and become more aware of educational processes, institutions outline a promising reality for Student Assistance and School Psychology.
