description In this paper, we discuss the political and financial implications in the relationships between the target audience of special education and teacher training. The target audience of special education was restricted by the special education policy. Several actions could be carried out: creation of Multifunctional Resources Classes Rooms, teacher training, financing of the Special Education Support Project. Currently, a new discussion tries to alter this clientele. However, two controversies are present: the first is that the definition of the population served does not seem to frame into categories of disability determined by scientific criteria; the second, when expanding the target audience, financial resources must be expanded. Unfortunately, the country's economic moment does not guarantee the financial contribution to achieve this change. Some municipalities are already outsourcing the Specialized Educational Service to non-governmental institutions. This fact is contributing to the fact that no financial investments are made in the public school, which may become fragile in coming years.

In this paper, we discuss the political and financial implications in the relationships between the target audience of special education and teacher training.

This fact is contributing to the fact that no financial investments are made in the public school, which may become fragile in coming years. En este documento, discutimos las implicaciones políticas y financieras en las relaciones entre el público de la educación especial y la formación docente. El público de educación especial se ha restringido por la política de educación especial de 2008. Se podrían llevar a cabo varias acciones: creación de Salas de Recursos Multifuncionales, capacitación docente, financiación del Proyecto de Apoyo a la Educación Especial. Actualmente, una nueva discusión intenta alterar esta clientela. Sin embargo, existen dos controversias: la primera es que la definición de población atendida no parece enmarcarse en categorías de discapacidad determinadas por criterios científicos; el segundo, al expandir el público, los recursos financieros deben expandirse. Desafortunadamente, el momento económico del país no garantiza la contribución financiera para lograr este cambio. Algunos municipios ya subcontratan el Servicio Educativo Especializado a instituciones no gubernamentales. Este hecho está contribuyendo para que no se realicen inversiones financieras en la escuela pública, que podría debilitarse en los años venideros. Neste artigo, são discutidas as implicações políticas e financeiras em relação ao público-alvo da educação especial e a formação de professores. O público-alvo da educação especial foi restringido pela politica de 2008. Várias ações puderam ser realizadas: criação das Salas de Recursos Multifuncionais, formação de professores, financiamento do Projeto de Apoio a Educação Especial. Atualmente, uma nova discussão tenta ampliar essa clientela. Porém, duas controvérsias estão presentes: a primeira é que a definição da população atendida parece não se enquadrar em categorias de deficiência determinadas por critérios científicos; a segunda, ao ampliar o público-alvo os recursos financeiros devem ser ampliados. Infelizmente, o momento econômico do país não garante aporte financeiro para concretizar essa mudança. Alguns municípios já estão terceirizando o Atendimento Educacional Especializado para instituições não governamentais. Esse fato está contribuindo para que não sejam realizados investimentos financeiros na escola pública, que poderá se fragilizar nos anos vindouros. 2018-12-01 2022-03-18T19:30:18Z 2022-03-18T19:30:18Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/rpge/article/view/11914 10.22633/rpge.unesp.v22.nesp2.dez.2018.11914 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/65928 por https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/rpge/article/view/11914/7797 https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/rpge/article/view/11914/8114 Copyright (c) 2018 Revista on line de Política e Gestão Educacional application/pdf application/xml Universidade Estadual Paulista, Faculdade de Ciências e Letras de Araraquara Revista on line de Política e Gestão Educacional; v. 22, n. esp. 2, dez.
