Perfil docente do professor da pré-escola: um estudo sobre a realidade de Quixadá

Abstract

The present paper intends to perform a study about the child teachers profile in the city of Quixadá-CE. The individuals who participated in this study were from two childhood education centers. In all, six public school teachers from Quixadá participated, with whom we used the interview as a tool to build up data. In order to achieve the goals established, we used as theoretical background the researches of Freitas (1999), Gomes (2009), Leite (2011), Oliveira (2006), Bernard Charlot (2012) and others. The data, after they were analyzed, showed that the preschool teachers recognize the importance of teacher training as a way to improve their knowledge. Besides, the teachers reveal that this is a common practice in the city, through a state government program, for example Alfabetização na Idade Certa (Literacy at the right age) and publishers that have contributed to their formation. In this regard, it was concluded that, when training makes part of the educational policy and there are efforts to this end, the results on childhood education will be favorable, in view of the presence of qualified professionals and with technical competence to promote care and children education.
