Resumo

The study analyzes the specific case of the work experience of teachers working in private high schools in the Triângulo Mineiro and Alto Paranaíba region. Given the expansion of the privatization process in regular education and the growth in the number of teachers working in private schools, the research started from questioning the extent of the influence of business interests on the educational objectives of such organizations. The work is characterized as a qualitative research of an explanatory type that uses the ergological perspective as a theoretical and methodological basis. Eight teachers working in the region in question for at least five years have collaborated with the study. The collection of the testimonies was carried out using the "current" or "snowball" tool, that is, one teacher indicating the next, and through semi-structured interviews. The thesis is divided into four chapters. The first is dedicated to the discussion about the concept of work and teaching work. The second chapter deals with privatizing educational reforms, the expansion of private education in the country and the general conditions of work that teachers find in private high schools. The third chapter discusses the theoretical and methodological aspects that underpinned the study. The last chapter analyzes the content of the testimonies in the light of the theoretical and ethodological references adopted. The friction between the epistemological, ethical and political options of the researcher with the testimonies of the collaborating teachers allowed the consolidation of some knowledge and the emergence of other knowledge about the work activity that is carried out in the scope of private high schools in the indicated region. Among the main results of the study can be indicated that although the public university plays a major role in the initial training of teachers working in private schools, monitoring in the institutions themselves constitutes an important moment of preparation for future teachers. The testimonies revealed that there is no consensus on the issue of career, mainly due to the instability of the workers in private schools, due to the “opening and closing” of schools and the reduction or increase of classes from one period to another. The prescriptions for the work are determined by the apostille material that is adopted by the institutions whose main objective is the preparation for entrance exams in the university, such as the ENEM and the vestibular. The focus on entrance exams characterizes both the service offered by schools and the expectation of parents and students pursuing these institutions, although respondents have revealed that their work is hardly restricted to that goal alone. In short, the work activity of the teachers who work in private secondary education in the research region is carried out between the tension between what the company, the students and the parents expect them to do and what they think they should do, something else is referenced in the conceptions that the teachers have of what must be the regular formal education of average level.
