Description
Summary:This article presents a synthesis of a research's results focused investigating the relationship established between the work of regular school teachers and professionals from the Integrated School Program (PEI) in the Education Network of Belo Horizonte (RME/BH). It was aimed to check how the teachers and professionals of PEI interact, articulate and collaborate to carry out their activities. It also observed which tensions, problems and difficulties occur along the establishment of collaboration at work. To answer these questions it was conducted a qualitative study, three schools were selected for field research. The data collection instruments were documental research, observation and semi-structured interview. Participated, as subjects of this research, the regular school teachers, PEI’s professionals, the school’s principals and coordinators of the program. The results show the organizational difficulties and the precarious working conditions of schools in RME/BH for the implementation of a joint work between the teachers and professionals from PEI, especially considering: both shifts of regular school and the schedules of PEI between school's shifts; the lack of regulation for common hours to get all the research subjects together; the differences in training, contract, wages and working hours. It was also obtained as a result the existence of a comfortable collaboration between teachers and PEI’s professionals, based on a spontaneous approach between these subjects to perform specific activities of more immediate nature.
