Education inclusion of pupils with Down`s Syndrome

Abstract

One is about an ethnography research that investigates the attempt of inclusion of three pupils with Down`s Syndrome in a public school. The collection of data was carried through ethnographical fiches and a logbook. The analysis of the collected information allows the following considerations: a) inside of a proposal of an inclusion educational if it hides an incisive form of segregation – two of the investigated pupils have space/restricted access in the school; b) on the other hand, and paradoxicalally, the research also demonstrates inclusion possibilities – the third pupil frequents a regular group of fourth year of Elementary School of full form; c) external factors to the school, as the presence and support of the family, influenced the process of educational inclusion excessively in the investigated locus.
