The presented work has as a problematic investigative the following question: How the school curriculum can influence or determine the inclusion and/or the exclusion of learners with needs of Specialized Educational Service at EJA? Some of the research goals are: to highlight the theories that deal with curriculum and its contributions to the understanding of the curricular dynamics in the Youth and Adult Education; to perceive, through the analysis of the formal curriculum and action, the contents that strengthen the relation between curriculum and power; to identify how happens (or not) the process of inclusion of learners with Specialized Educational Assistance needs through the school curriculum. A field research was carried out with a qualitative approach, in a school of the Municipal Education Network that offers Youth and Adult Education in the afternoon and evening shifts. Data collection instruments consisted of a semi-structured interview, questionnaire, documentary analysis and observation of pedagogical practices in the spaces and times of the classroom. It is concluded that the learning difficulties that young people in the EJA class have can hardly be overcome if the teachers' pedagogical practices and the way they conceive the curriculum (formal and action) were not rethought. The data show that youth of the EJA question the curriculum and ask for a curricular reconfiguration that accords their particularities for learning.

Keywords : Curriculum; Special Education; Youth and Adult Education.
