CARVALHO, Maria Eulina Pessoa de. From families at school to schooling at home: notes on a current debate. Roteiro [online]. 2020, vol.45, e23222.  Epub 09-Jun-2020. ISSN 2177-6059.  https://doi.org/10.18593/r.v45i0.23222.

Based on bibliographical and documentary research, this text examines contexts, concepts and discourse involved in the debate of “school without party” and “homeschooling” policy calls, both of which mistake the educational functions of families and schools and attack the meaning of public education and the teaching profession. In order to put forth these arguments, at the core of family-school relations and the emergence of recent neo-conservative and neo-liberal trends, it updates the related federal legislative projects, analyses the latest drafts’ texts, and reviews recent academic literature. It concludes that, while the first project is an attempt to control schools’ curricula and teachers’ actions by a group of families, the latter intends to legitimize children evasion from the public space of schools, ignoring the teaching profession. This last point is illustrated by the debate among internet users upon the launch of the most recent homeschooling project.

Palabras clave : “School without party”; Homeschooling; Family-school relations; Public education; Teaching profession.
