Formación inicial del profesorado brasileño en prevención del riesgo social según la legislación educativa

Abstract

This article presents the results of the content analysis carried out, through the Atlas.ti software, to the legislation that regulates the initial training of Brazilian teachers. In Brazil, the teaching career is accessed from the teacher training of Pedagogy and from the rest of the teacher training. This dual access path to the teaching profession requires the analysis of six legislative documents. The documents analyzed range from the last two education laws in force in Brazil –Law of Guidelines and Bases of National Education (Law n.º 9.394, 1996) and the Law that approves the National Education Plan (Law n.º 13.005, 2014)– up to the four National Curricular Guidelines. The National Curricular Guidelines, in Brazil, govern the training of teachers in Pedagogy courses («Parecer» CNE/CP n.º 5, 2005; Resolution, CNE/CP n.º 1, 2006) as well as in the rest of the teacher training («Parecer» CNE/CP n.º 2, 2015; Resolution CNE/CP n.º 2, 2015). The objective of this descriptive article of documentary analysis of the content of current educational legislation is to find, both implicitly or explicitly, the training offered to teachers in training, on a fundamental aspect in Brazilian society: the prevention of social risk. The conclusions of this qualitative research allow us to affirm two facts. On the one hand, it is indicated that in the legislation analyzed there is an unequal explicit concern (depending on the document analyzed) to reduce visible manifestations of crystallized social risk. On the other hand, it is stated that there is no explicit reference to teacher training to prevent, from school, social risk in new generations. Faced with this contradiction between theoretical idea and practical realization, it is concluded by stating that the prevention of social risk should not be considered a teaching competence in the training of new Brazilian teachers.
