Abstract

The research aimed to investigate how students of the Pedagogy course with the Faculty of Education of the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul perceived the process of school inclusion of children with disabilities. The study was conducted in early childhood education in the municipality of Campo Grande/MS, where they lived the experiences of mandatory undergraduate internship. The research has a qualitative character, and interviews with students of the Pedagogy course were used as a data collection instrument. The data were analyzed considering: the concept of school inclusion and its relevance; challenges for inclusion; and actions of subjects in the mandatory internship with prospects for future teaching action. We conclude that school inclusion still needs changes and a collaboration network between school management, teachers, support teachers, school staff and families to effect school inclusion beyond speech so that children with disabilities in early childhood education can be included and be part of the entire educational process, not only guaranteeing access, through enrollment but maintaining quality education and care at the institution.
