present lower living conditions than the<br />

population of the country due to the persistence<br />

of the dissatisfaction of some basic needs.<br />

However, changes in the 1990s caused<br />

changes in the structure of opportunities related<br />

to some risk conditions for families, causing a<br />

heterogeneity in the living conditions of the<br />

population. As a consequence of this situation,<br />

research was carried out with the objective of<br />

evaluating the impact in the population<br />

segments that, due to their characteristics,<br />

presented greater vulnerability to the change<br />

processes. Among them are the research on the<br />

family; Young; Children and adolescents; The<br />

beneficiaries of social assistance, among other<br />

social groups.<br />

One of the population segments that has<br />

been most affected by this situation has been<br />

children, especially children who come from a<br />

population sector that has been studied by<br />

some authors since the 1980s and whose<br />

indicators Socioeconomic and sociodemographic,<br />

as well as other cultural and<br />

lifestyle aspects, differ from the average values<br />

of the population.<br />

Children who grow up in families with<br />

these characteristics tend to have disorders in<br />

their behaviors and difficulties in learning.<br />

Relevant studies have focused on the problems<br />

of childhood, which have served to support<br />

more recent research. The National<br />

Commission on Prevention and Social Care<br />

(CNPAS), from its inception, addressed the<br />

study and the deepening about the minors that<br />

are in Schools of Behavior Disorders and<br />

Reeducation Centers.<br />

The research presented above played an<br />

important role in subsequent studies on the<br />

subject of childhood with unfavorable social<br />

conditions. In this study, it was also found that<br />

when children were admitted to primary<br />

school, children from poor socioeconomic and<br />

family backgrounds were not adequately cared<br />

for, and tended to be rejected by teachers and<br />

classmates. They rarely received the required<br />

pedagogical attention and were seldom<br />

selected for activities, thus reducing their<br />

chances of participation and social integration.<br />

The work of the school's educational team was<br />

weak. Teachers were unaware of the living<br />

conditions of these children.<br />

This research had a second part carried<br />

out in 10 provinces, which consisted of an<br />

experience of priority and preventive attention<br />

of these students from the first degree.<br />

Three lines of action were tried: in-school<br />

pedagogy, teacher work with the family and<br />

community action on the family.<br />

This experience showed that<br />

preferential attention by the teacher and the<br />

pedagogical group from the instructive and<br />

educational points of view, as well as the<br />

individual work of the teacher with the family<br />

through the periodic visit to the home, can<br />

significantly improve the school performance<br />

of These students, the home-school bond and<br />

the care of these children by their families.<br />

From this situation a Preventive Program of<br />

priority attention was structured to the children<br />

who present adverse socioeconomic and<br />

familiar conditions from the entrance to the<br />

school. Its main objectives are to prevent<br />

school failure and increase the social<br />

integration of these children and their families.<br />

It is also aimed at increasing the effectiveness<br />

and preventive political role of the school and<br />

its influence on the community.<br />

Based on this study, the Ministry of<br />

Education (MINED) is currently developing<br />

the Preventive Program with the aim of<br />

providing them with preferential educational,<br />

school and community services to these<br />

children and their families.<br />

In this case, the relationship between<br />

childhood, socio-economic conditions
