Migrantes na escola: estudo acerva da inserção das crianças migrantes no sistema escolar em Caxias do Sul, em tempos presentes

Abstract

The present migrations have specific characteristics generated by globalization. Since 2010 the international migrant flow to Brazil has been increasing and is diverse in terms of the country of origin, the reason to migrate, and the profile of migrants. It's noted that the presence of migrant children has increased substantially. They are exposed to high vulnerabilities and risks. Many cities in Brazil are receiving a great number of international migrants from the second decade of the 20th century, consequently representing a significant increase in enrollments of migrant children. In this context, the search intends to collaborate for the comprehension of how the process of insertion of migrant students in regular education occurs in Caxias do Sul based on the narratives of teachers from the municipal network in the period 2017-2020. The research was based on the critical method postulated by Becker regarding migration studies; and oral history. The field research was carried out with interviews with teachers from the city's municipal education network who had migrant students in the classroom. Through the narratives, categories of analysis were created that allowed the understanding of the dialogues between the narrators and the researcher. From the analysis of these narratives, the following categories emerged a) school insertion process; b) alternatives created by teachers to improve the insertion process of migrant students; c) reception strategies; d) school adaptation and culture shock; and e) social relationships established between the school, the child, and the family. It is concluded that the school has a fundamental role in school development, in the socialization of migrant children, integration of the child and the migrant family in the local community. In addition to having a protective character in guaranteeing the rights of children in migration situations. The study carried out contributed to the production of an orientation guide for the school with a bibliography relevant to the theme. [resumo fornecido pelo autor]
