"Escola sem partido" e os limites de atuação dos professores no espaço educacional

Abstract

The objective of this work is to investigate the perspectives of teachers of public basic education in the city of Itumbiara-Goiás about the Project “Escola Sem Partido” (ESP), which proposed and guided guidelines related to the teacher's performance in the classroom. In recent years, much has been discussed about the role and performance of teachers in the school space. If, on the one hand, historically, there has been a certain recognition of its role and performance for an education for the emancipation and humanization of individuals, on the other hand, there are proposals that question it as the one referring to the “School without Party” Project (ESP). It appears, therefore, that some segments of society have identified contradictions regarding the role of teachers in the school environment. In theory, as some authors mention, the objective of ESP is to “prohibit” indoctrination in the school environment, which would be to not allow the teacher to dialogue on issues related to politics, gender and party ideologies, and it is from there that several questions and movements about this bill. The purpose of this paper is to investigate how this type of proposal can have an impact on the school, especially in the teacher's performance. For this, using a qualitative methodology, the data collection methods adopted were bibliographic research and the application of an electronic questionnaire for teachers from the Municipal and State Education Network in the city of Itumbiara-GO. Starting from the perspective of such teachers, we sought to understand the perspective of each participant on this type of proposal and what changes and consequences can be brought about in their professional performance with the possible implementation of actions related to this project. According to the speech of the surveyed teachers, it is evident that there is no neutral school, and this type of research becomes important because it demonstrates the teachers' view on the impacts and the difficulty of carrying out teaching by limiting their speech and expression as an educator and propagator of discussions within the school environment. This idea that most of the teachers interviewed argued. Thus, this research seeks to contribute to research in the area of Education, reaching the school community as a whole. Through the realization of this study, it was possible to realize that the theme worked can change the direction of education significantly and it is necessary to reflect on the subject. We live in a society of different values, beliefs, creeds, cultures, ways of acting and thinking. The analysis highlights that after so much fighting for the “free school”, joining this movement would be a setback to the education system in short.
