The process of shutdown rural schools in the cities of Arraias and Combinado – TO

Abstract

The Rural Education policies have been consolidated in social movements by a political and pedagogical project for the rural folks emancipation. That research's center of attention is bounded between the period from 1998 to 2015, and having as target to inquire the Rural Education normative marks that it ensures the right to a best-quality public education for peasant folks and understanding the shutdown policies of rural schools localized in Arraias and Combinado in the Tocantins State. When it comes to the methodological outlook, we’ve adopted the bibliographic and documentary review as a research source in the organization and systematization of primary sources. From now there, the research reveals that the rural schools shutdown in the proper cities shows the denial of the right to education in the environment in where they live. Thus, the educational rights conquered were infringed by the public authorities in the process of rural communities mobilization and organization.
