The aim of this paper is to present, comparing two empirical studies, a mapping of the moral conceptions of adolescents' teacher education, regarding four constructs: obedience, respect, fairness and autonomy, based on the Theory of Moral Judgment of Jean Piaget. 164 educators fathers/mothers participated of the first study and 18 educators participated of the second study. We used a set of 11 items inspired by Scale of Moral Educational Conceptions. The first study`s results showed a considerable difference between judgment and moral action of educators. For the second study the results show more restrained responses than those found in the first study. Results showed the importance to continue investigating comparatively the families and schools as context of development and moral education.
