Policy change events generates conflicts due to the change in the status quo and the dispute over the allocation of resources. This paper analyzes the attempt to change the Special Education policy, after the government changes that occurred between 2016 and 2019 in Brazil. For this, a categorical analysis of contend is made in documents produced during the review of the National Special Education Policy from the Perspective of Inclusive Education (Política Nacional de Educação Especial na Perspectiva da Educação Inclusiva). It was found that the proposed amendment promotes the discontinuity of school inclusion by reorganizing the responsibilities of the family, the State and the market in schooling and specialized educational assistance; resuming the Special Education model as a modality outside the regular education system; encouraging the training of professionals to work in specialized institutions; and by basing the learning assessment on standardized goals and objectives for disability.

Keywords : public policies; special education; inclusive education; disability.
