Classes hospitalares em Maceió: entre a legislação e a invisibilidade educacional de crianças e adolescentes internados para tratamento de saúde

Abstract

This research aims to investigate analytically the Resolution No. 01/2016 COMED-Maceió, which establishes standards for special education, in the perspective of inclusive education, and for Specialized Education Service to students with disabilities, global development disorders and high abilities / giftedness in the stages and modalities of public and private basic education, belonging to the Municipal Education System of Maceió / Alagoas, in light of the fundamentals of Human Rights, in order to problematize its contradictions, consequences and complexity, in order to understand why the aforementioned Resolution is not effective in Maceió, since the municipality does not have hospital classes. Thus, the object of study focuses on hospital classes as a constituent element of Fundamental Human Rights. The study starts from the following questions: why Resolution No. 01/2016 COMED Maceió is not effective for students away from regular school for health treatment? Does the Municipal Education Department of Maceió have an action plan to comply with this law with regard to the implementation of hospital classes? In an attempt to answer these questions, the documental study was adopted as a methodological procedure and content analysis (BARDIN, 2011) as a technique for data organization. Thus, the following hypothesis is established: the resolution exists, is in force, however it is not effective in the municipality, being just a dead letter of the law with regard to the right to special and inclusive education of hospitalized subjects. The theoretical framework is based on Santos (1995; 2000); Fonseca (1999); John Rawls (2000; 2003); Ceccim (2002); Mantoan (2003); Ortiz e Freitas (2005; 2016); Mantoan e Prieto (2006); Carvalho (2007); Assis (2009); Matos, Mugiatti (2009); Matos (2010). The findings showed that Resolution No. 01/2016 COMED Maceió becomes ineffective when it does not allow children and adolescents to exercise their right to education and schooling even if they are hospitalized and that the Municipal Department of Education of Maceió does not have a plan for educational action that serves as a parameter for the implementation of hospital pedagogical care, so that the aforementioned law only reproduces the lack of commitment of the public authorities to special education.
