SUMMARY:

Congenital Zika Syndrome has become a reality in Brazil since 2015, compromising the typical and healthy development of thousands of children across the country. The syndrome is mainly characterized by microcephaly, as well as by the presence of multiple disabilities, since brain injuries result in visual, hearing, cognitive and motor impairments. So, school inclusion has become an important agenda point, since, from the year 2018, children reached the expected age for entering nursery and preschools. This dissertation, therefore, aimed to describe and analyze the performance of a sample of “Auxiliary teachers Supporting Child Development” (ADI, in Portuguese language) from the local city educational network of Salvador-Ba (SMED), in the perspective of their contributions to the engagement of children with CZS. The research was carried out by qualitative methods and through participant observation undertaken during several training meetings offered to the ADIs, promoted by SMED and taught by the researcher/author. Data were collected in the form of field diary records. The training was intended to prepare professionals for monitoring and caring for children with the syndrome, considering the specificities of the school environment. The study results indicated a lack of knowledge about the syndrome on the part of the ADIs, with regard to the clinical and developmental conditions of the children, and found that these professionals faced difficulties in carrying out basic care activities with that kind of clientele. Results also showed structural and regular absence of ideal access to school, mainly in the provision of resources/adaptations that facilitate daily care, as well as pointing out the lack of self-recognition, by the ADI, of the importance of its role as an agent for the school inclusion of the child with the syndrome. Even though the ADIs have emphasized the difficulty of keeping the child with the syndrome at school, they recognized the importance of continuing education spaces, as well as the need for greater investment to achieve more effective practices in the care of children with CZS. As the school is a powerful space of social responsibility, it is concluded that there is a great need for investment in the training of the ADI in its essential role, not only to offer care, but also to enable the participation and permanence of the child with CZS in ordinary schools.
