This study aimed to identify the conceptions that mothers and fathers from the first and second cycles of elementary school have about the Social Competence of public and private schools teachers in the region of Rio de Janeiro, Niterói and São Gonçalo. Based on interviews with 16 mothers, fathers and guardians of children enrolled in the first and second segments of elementary school, we sought to describe the characteristics expected of these important agents in the training process. With a qualitative methodology of discourse analysis, based on a corpus created with the interviews, the group discussions were deepened to conceptualize and characterize, according to the view of mothers and fathers, a socially competent teacher. Based on the data collected, parents value the relational dimension, which must complement itself with the technical domain. It is highlighted in the data collected from mothers and fathers in the first cycle that their children are not mature enough for self-assessment and determining themes to be discussed in the classroom. Unlike the parents in the second cycle who imagine an ideal scenario with the development of these activities.
