Educação sexual na infância e seu silenciamento na formação de professores

Abstract

This article socializes research results of a course completion work that had as its object the silencing of the sexual education theme in teacher training. Based on the assumption that the child's development also permeates the dimension of sexuality and, respectively, the self-knowledge of their body and the limits that must be imposed on those who want to overcome them (whether with intention or lack of it), we searched the literature for notes on the training needs of teachers in this area are available. As a result, we point to this silencing, notably in initial training, in view of what is proposed to create and offer at least one compulsory subject in the curricula of undergraduate courses.
