MARQUES DE OLIVEIRA, Neusa Denise  and  CORDEIRO, Aliciene Fusca Machado. WHAT DO SCHOOL MANAGEMENT TEAMS THINK ABOUT SPECIALIZED EDUCATIONAL ASSISTANCE?. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2018, vol.34, e173991.  Epub Apr 10, 2018. ISSN 1982-6621.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0102-4698173991.

This study aimed to investigate the understandings of school management teams about the Specialized Educational Assistance service. As a data collection instrument, a questionnaire was used. The participants in this research were seven principals, eight supervisors and seven counselors from seven schools in a city in the state of Santa Catarina, totaling 22 participants. Content analysis was used to analyze the understandings of the seven Directive Teams. The results demonstrated that the majority of participants have an understanding about Specialized Educational Assistance focused on the target audience of Special Education. The Specialized Educational Assistance seems to be understood by the management teams as an individualized service, sectored and with little interlocution among other professionals of the school.

Keywords : School management; School management team; Special education; Specialized Educational Assistance.
