Como as políticas públicas de acessibilidade estão inseridas no ambiente escolar no município de Chapadinha-MA : um olhar através dos projetos pedagógicos das escolas.

Abstract

Accessibility is defined as the condition of reach, perception and understanding for the safe and autonomous use of buildings, space, furniture, urban equipment and elements. Based on this definition by ABNT, the objective of this research was to analyze the existence and application of public accessibility policies in the Pedagogical Projects of public schools in Chapadinha, Maranhão. The methodological proposal used was the document analysis, in view of the analysis of the pedagogical projects of four schools in the city. The schools chosen were: José Augusto Costa Integrated Unit, Lucas Tranquedo Integrated Unit, João Carneiro Integrated Unit and Universo da Criança Kindergarten. The work is organized with theoretical-methodological chapters that present the concepts of accessibility, public policies, inclusion and exclusion. Afterwards, it follows with the result and discussion of the research, where there is a description of the historical context of each school and the analysis of their respective pedagogical projects. Broadly, it is possible to argue that the city of Chapadinha - MA, through the Department of Education, does not fully develop social projects that consider the inclusion of everybody, so that students feel motivated and contemplated in the activities, regardless of their deficiencies.
