DIAS, Regina Lúcia Cerqueira. School Trajectory of Students from Popular Classes and the Access to Higher Education. R. Bras. Est. Pedag. [online]. 2017, vol.98, n.248, pp.212-229. ISSN 2176-6681.  https://doi.org/10.24109/2176-6681.rbep.98i248.2679.

This article aims to describe and analyse the school trajectories of students from popular classes. It also aims to understand the importance of the experiences of these subjects in a popular pre-university course for access to higher education. The research used a biographical approach and it were reconstructed and analysed the educational and personal trajectories of two individuals egress from the popular pre-university course Praxis, located in Niterói, whom were successful in entrance exams and had entered to higher education. The analysis of the interviews into the research’s participants showed that the school trajectories of these subjects had been extremely bumpy and that there had been an intense mobilization by them and their relatives to continue to study. The popular pre-university course Praxis and other pre-university courses frequented by research’s participants had been essential for them for access to higher education because they helped them to fill gaps in their curricular knowledge and acquire important information to achieve this level of education.

Palabras clave : access to higher education; students of popular classes; popular pre-university courses.
