School evasion is a problem which is being faced by the academic community at Instituto Federal do Sertão Pernambucano (IF Sertão–PE) in its Ouricuri Campus nowadays. Due to the multiple factors which bring out this phenomenon the current Intervention Project aims at expanding the comprehension of the relationship between the evasion and the not graduated teachers’ pedagogical practice, which was highlighted in a previous study carried out in 2014, aiming at proposing actions in order to change the reality which is lived in the Campus, which included offering a course to those teachers, empowering the presence of Information and Communication Technologies ( ICT) in the formative context. Exploratory and documental research with a qualitative – descriptive approach by means of a questionnaire and a semi-structured interview was presented as a subsidy to the present propositions. The study enabled listening about not graduated teachers’ strengths and weaknesses, which were expressed through these professionals’ expectations, wishes and dreams. It also resulted in the identification of the claim for taking more part in defining their own educational background. Finally, as a possible synthesis for investigation and subsequential action proposed in this paper, the institution’s responsibility concerning to implementing a teachers’ formation policy, supporting the development of further and contínuos education culture inside the Campus, committed to the students’ permanence in the formative process is indicated.
