MELO-SILVA, Lucy Leal; MUNHOZ, Izildinha Maria da Silva and LEAL, Mara de Souza. Professional guidance in elementary school as public policy in Brazil. Rev. bras. orientac. prof [online]. 2019, vol.20, n.1, pp.3-18. ISSN 1984-7270. https://doi.org/1026707/1984-7270/2019v19n2p133.
Public policies are the focus of this study, aiming to identify, systematize and analyze Brazilian legislation on the insertion of the professional guidance practice in the Brazilian educational system. The official websites of the Brazilian Government and the National Congress were taken as data source. The systematization of the data was organized in two axes: public policies and actions in Professional Guidance in its historical and legal frameworks; and legislative proposals in the period from 2016 to 2018. The results show that legislation historically registers interest in Professional Guidance, although it has not been universal and sequential. Propositions were made disconnected from scientific advances. In the last proposition analyzed, however, some harmony with the production of knowledge is already observed.
