This article aims to understand the purposes of teaching English at Colégio Estadual do Paraná, in the 1960s, when an experiment was in progress aiming at the renewal of secondary education, whose classes were called Classes Integrais. With theoretical support from Cultural History (CHARTIER, 2002) and the concept of School Culture (JULIÁ, 2001), the study uses as a document the Reports of the Classes Integrais from 1960 to 1967. The results indicate that these Classes brought novelties in English Language teaching such as the adoption of active methodologies, diverse teaching resources, differentiated assessment, vocabularies, and grammatical structures were dealt with in specific situations familiar to students, the practice of the four skills (reading, writing, speaking, listening). However, the general objectives of the teaching of this subject were, in addition to mastering the basic structures of the language, interpreting texts in order to prepare for higher education or professional training.
