RESUMO

This study is included in the field of Education History and Historiography. It is an analysis about the courses of studies elaborated between 1887 and 1929 in São Paulo, identifying the school knowledge (subjects and contents) selected to be teached in the following types of public primary schools existed in the period: isolated schools, model schools, graded schools, isolated model schools and reunited schools. For each model of school, there was a specific course of studies to be complied, meaning, thus, that the children that they attended couldnt have access to the same school knowledge. Through the investigation of the course of studies - that were incorporated in school legislation or attached in it - it aimed to pay attention to aspects as stability, addiction, and/or exclusion of certain school knowledge, besides the way that they were presented, it means, if only they described the subjects to be teached or if they detailed the contents of each one. This way, it was possible to conclude that the main goals of the primary schools were the nationalization and the moralization of the students. However, in case of isolated schools, those werent the initial focus. Other intent of this research was look for references about the issue of course of studies made by different educational professionals during the period. For this objective, it were analyzed teachers, principals of model schools and graded schools (they are found as manuscripts) and inspectors reports. In this case, they also can be found as manuscripts, but later they were included in the Anuários do Ensino do Estado de São Paulo (1907-1926). Besides, it were investigated texts published in three educational magazines which authors, generally, kept high positions in the hierarchy of São Paulos public educational system (teachers and old students of Normal School, principals of schools, and others): Revista de Ensino (1902-1918), Revista Escolar (1925-1927) and Educação (1927-1929). Through the utilization of the educational reports and the educational magazines it was able to note the active participation of the different educational professionals involving discussion about what to teach in primary schools. As theoretical standpoint, the main authors that have been used were André Chervel and Dominique Julia, who suggest the history of school subjects as a way to discover the school culture, and Ivor Goodson, one of the exponents of the history of curriculum.
