SOUZA, Rosa Fátima de. The Configuration of the Isolated Schools in the State of São Paulo (1846 - 1904). Rev. Bras. Hist. Educ [online]. 2016, vol.16, n.2, pp.341-377. ISSN 2238-0094.  https://doi.org/10.4025/rbhe.v16i2.931.

The aim of this paper is to reconstruct the history of the isolated schools in the state of São Paulo from 1846 to 1904. The analysis indicates that this type of primary school was part of the old model of school of longer duration and marks the emergence of the new term 'isolated school' as a development of the expansion policies of primary school education approved by the state government based upon internal differentiation of the school network. To carry out this study, 250 public school teacher's reports from 1852 to 1897 were examined. The paper discusses the pedagogic organization and the functioning of the single schools in the 19th century, highlights their modernization at the beginning of the Republic period and problematizes the institutionalization of the isolated school in the São Paulo state public school education system.

Keywords : History of the Primary School; Isolated Schools; History of Education; São Paulo State Primary Schools.
