In this paper, we propose to offer an alternative perspective to those that guide the analysis of the relationship between Education and the Theory of Social Representations. In opposition to the tradition that considers Education as a field of application of psychology, we argue that there are mutual contributions between both spheres of knowledge. Mutuality is understood as the process of reciprocal interaction, interdependence and cooperation, solidarity, and mutual help. The mutuality of Education and the Theory of Social Representations consists in the movement that stimulates studies in the Brazilian context, especially those that have been developed at the Centro Internacional de Estudos em Representações Sociais e Subjetividade - Educação (CIERS-ed). The analyses carried out on the contributions of the Theory of Social Representations to Education highlight the increase in research that considers the production of knowledge based on contextualized social realities, as well as the importance of the subjectivity of educators and learners. At the same time, Education has been offering research on social representations progress that goes from diagnosis to praxis, mainly guided by critical and political approaches to educational thought.
