MURY, Rita de Cassia Ximenes  e  LELIS, Isabel Alice Monteiro. TEACHER PROFESSIONALIZATION IN A PRIVATE SCHOOL SERVING POPULAR SECTORS: FOLLOWING ARIADNE'S THREAD. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2016, vol.32, n.1, pp.35-53. ISSN 1982-6621.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0102-4698141942.

This paper is part of a research conducted in a private school serving popular sectors. Focusing on teacher professionalization marked by this context, we opted to use life histories as the main instrument for data collection. The concepts of trajectory, field and habitus, developed by Bourdieu, were central in the analysis. Furthermore, studies by Nóvoa, Valle and Fanfani helped in the construction and discussion of data. The investigation shows a unique process of professionalization, marked by an attachment to the profession built in the training process, teaching experience and by a learned taste, identified by teachers as "vocation". This paper discusses how the almost family-like relationships established in this school foster a singular path to the teaching career. Finally, it points out the importance of understanding teacher professionalization from the concrete contexts of action and life trajectories, considering the heterogeneity characteristic of this profession.
