Feelings of teachers in situations of inclusion

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to understand the feelings of teachers in situations of inclusion. The research was carried out in a private school in the city of São Paulo, with teachers from different curricular components who work in the final years of Elementary School. The data collection was carried out through a questionnaire and the answers obtained were classified and categorized based on content analysis. The results showed that teachers associate inclusive education with health diagnoses. Their feelings towards the challenges of inclusion are diverse and ambivalent, ranging from those linked to helplessness and disturbance, to those associated with support and comfort.
