Resumo

This master’s thesis, developed in the Graduate Program in Education of FE/UFG, in the Line of Research “Education, work and social movements”, aimed at comprehending, guided by gender studies, how girls deal with poor school performance. We based on the Theory of Practice by Pierre Bourdieu as the theoretical and methodological background to develop a qualitative research. The participants of this research were children with ages ranging from 9 to 10 from two public schools in Goiânia. There were also 240 hours of observation divided among classrooms, interactions between children in the patio and between teachers in the teacher’s room, meetings with families, and student performance evaluation meetings. We carried out semi-structured interviews with teachers and students. The results showed the devaluation of a specific type of femininity, the one that is affirmed in the excess of female vanity, and, according to some children, would be the worthy part of being a girl. Few girls strongly confronted the rules imposed by the school, being the indifference the most recurring way of resistance. The symbolic violence performed by one of the schools on female bodies was also an important aspect to be considered when dealing with this theme.
