Ao optarmos por auscultar as representações dos professores, alunos e pais sobre a escola e o professor, as questões comunicacionais e a participação dos pais na escola, visámos essencialmente tentar perceber as fraquezas e as ameaças que actualmente subjazem a estas realidades, mas também as forças e oportunidades que podem ser potenciadas em prol da educação em sentido lato.
Foram inquiridos 298 alunos (9º ao 12ºAno), 76 professores e 151 pais oriundos de 4 cidades e 7 escolas diferentes.
Os alunos, embora com alguns sentimentos de desagrado em relação à escola, representam-na como algo muito importante para o seu futuro e enquanto cidadãos; embora representem os professores com alguns sentimentos negativos, associam-lhes características positivas imanentes à sua função e, essencialmente, uma imagem forte da componente de relacionamento sócio-pessoal.
Os professores manifestam um estado de insatisfação em relação à Escola e à sua Profissão. Os professores na sua maioria não se sentem realizados, sendo aqueles que se encontram entre os 16 e 25 anos de ensino os que apresentam maiores sentimentos de não realização.
Os pais vêem a escola como algo muito importante para o futuro dos seus filhos e representam os professores basicamente ligados à acção pedagógica da transmissão de conhecimentos. Todos os grupos percepcionam que os pais são ausentes na participação em actividades na escola; o processo comunicacional é representado como deficiente por professores e pais, sendo neste particular apontada como mais fragilizada a comunicação entre pais e professores.
ABSTRACT: By choosing to hear the representations of teachers, students and parents about the school and the teacher, communicational questions and parent participation in school, we mainly aim to try to understand the weaknesses and threats that currently underpin these realities, but also the strengths and opportunities that can be exploited for education in the broadest sense. Respondents were 298 students (9th through 12th grades), 76 teachers and 151 parents from 4 towns and 7 different schools. Despite some feelings of dissatisfaction about the school, the students represent it as something very important to their future and as citizens; they represent teachers with some negative feelings but they also associate positive characteristics inherent to their function and, essentially a strong image of the component of social and personal relationship. Teachers express a state of dissatisfaction with the school and their profession. The teachers mostly feel a sense of no realization. Those who are between 16 and 25 years of teaching express stronger fellings of no realization. Parents view school as something very important for the future of their children and represent the teachers basically linked to the educational efforts of the transmission of knowledge. All groups perceive that parents are absent from participation in activities at school; Teachers and parents represent the communicational process as poor, and in particular considered more fragile the communication between parents and teachers.
