GOMES, Claudia  e  REY, Fernando Luis Gonzalez. School inclusion: representations about school inclusion shared with professionals of education. Psicol. cienc. prof. [online]. 2007, vol.27, n.3, pp. 406-417. ISSN 1414-9893.

This article intended to explore some representations shared among twenty-five professionals of education (elementary schools) about the school inclusion of handicapped students. To achieve this goal, it was necessary to focus on a system based on conversation. The work was done through experience inside the school institutions in seven months of research development. The analises of the obtained information established that implicit aspects of schools about the theme are interlaced with different representations: possibility of educational development, place for social meetings and rewarding practices. We can conclude that as long as teacher's beliefs, desires, frustrations and affections to their professional actions are not understood, they will remain in darkness, for they are not able to assure the position of teaching any student; thus, school will certainly be trapped on the cruel circle of selection and exclusion of the handicapped students. Only the teacher's feelings will direct an attitude towards the construction and improvement of a school that can include students without selecting some of them.
