MOREIRA, Ana Paula Gomes  and  GUZZO, Raquel Souza Lobo. The psychologist in the school: an invisible work?. Gerais, Rev. Interinst. Psicol. [online]. 2014, vol.7, n.1, pp. 42-52. ISSN 1983-8220.

Despite the advances in the field of School Psychology, difficulties that surround psychologist1s acting in the schools are often observed. This work intends to discuss this question through the analysis of 127 field notes produced by psychologists who had been in educational institutions between 2008 and 2009. By using a constructive-interpretative process three categories were formulated representing the interventions of psychologists in the school: assistance to the educational team, interventions with parents and with children. It indicates the importance of the school psychologist. Finally, this information contests the invisible myth that circumscribed the work of school psychologists as well as pointing out the urgency of the elaboration of public politics to include this professional as a member of the educational staff

Keywords : School Psychology; Basic Education; Acting.
