This article aims to present a brief history about the Childhood Education’s role and the perceptions of educators about the similarities between nursery school and preschool, and the institution’s actual role. The methodology includes studies and official documents that are intended to the Childhood Education and empirical data obtained through participant observation and semistructured interview with eight educators from a county’s institution of Sao Paulo’s state. The data were analyzed based on the concept of significant units of Bardin’s Content Analysis (2016). The results show that the welfare character is still present inside the educational practices, but that advances were already achieved on the child’s recognition and the institution’s role. The institution has socio-political and pedagogical functions that must be fulfilled and recognized.
KEYWORDS: Childhood Education. Intitution’s Role. Pedagogical Practices. Child’s Recognition.
