Educação do campo: uma análise do processo de fechamento de uma escola do campo em Abaetetuba, Estado do Pará

Abstract

The closure of multisert schools in Brazil has been constant in recent years, and it expands the nucleation model that occurs in this system. The article analyzes how the closure process took place in a field school in Abaetetuba (PA) and its implications in the community where it was inserted. The research has followed the methodological assumptions of oral history, with interviews with four local residents, from a qualitative perspective. We also present that the extinction of the field school did not consider the impacts that could cause to students` families of multigrade classes, who had to join to the use of school transportation, which requires supervision and improvement, in order to avoid the rural exodus.
