Paulo Freire and the Transformation Announcement in the Critical Practice of School Psychology
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: ABSTRACT Is Paulo Freire, a possible announcement? This study reflects about critical action in School Psychology, problematizing its effectiveness in materializing transformative actions at school. To this end, we sought in Freirean thought, in dialogue with School Psychology productions, theoretical-practical subsidies that would help us in the task of bringing the psychologists’ critical work closer to the needs of current public schools. Throughout the discussion, we present dialogue and politics as interesting starting points for the materialization of criticism into a transformation practice, guided by the dialectical action of professionals concerned with dialoguing with local subjects, as well as affirming the politics of education embodied by their engagement in defending the democratization of their praxis. Finally, our announcement is made based on the commitment to the development of reflections and practices from a critical perspective in School Psychology based on Freirean thought.
