Abstract

The Special Education is a current topic, but since the 1950 was already studied by several researches. It arose as a way to provide education to people with any type of special need. The central proposal of inclusion is to provide education for people with special needs in public schools of education. However, for teachers including school has become a difficult environment, because they lack the proper training to meet the demands of this audience. Moreover, the texts of the public policies for special education do not prioritize the general and specific training for the teacher. Accordingly, the objectives of this study were to investigate the perceptions of teachers about their working conditions in the context inclusive, seeking to identify the benefits and difficulties perceived by them on inclusion; perform an analysis of the assumptions elaborated in public policies, national and international state regarding school inclusion, and check whether there is a correlation between working conditions and teacher training with their perception on the inclusion of students with special needs in regular education schools. 55 teachers participated in this research effective network of Goiás state education in schools in the city of Goiania. It was used as an instrument for collect data a self applicable questionnaire containing 13 questions. Data were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively based on content analysis, with the technique of grouping by subject. The results showed that teachers understand the educational inclusion as a means of socialization of special students, as they interact with students and professionals without special needs, and this is also a way to value and respect individual differences. Most teachers are in favor of the inclusion of special students in regular schools, but disagreed that their higher education has prepared them to serve this audience. Even with reservations, participants were satisfied with their performance in teaching students included. His perception about the working conditions in this context was significant in that all indicators presented were considered factors that represent extreme difficulty in working on school inclusion. With similar results in the literature, which may suggest that the current is ideal for special education and school enrollment are not actually support experienced by regular education teachers, students and other education professionals.
