ORTIZ, Luis. Ethics, work and test: The formation of school provision regarding disadvantaged backgrounds. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2014, vol.36, n.143, pp.86-104. ISSN 0185-2698.
This article deals with the school experience of youths from disadvantaged social backgrounds in two regions of Paraguay. The methodological strategy involved field work combining sociological observation with testimony from local agents; that is, an interpellation of the different social levels of each school and aimed at understanding the practices of the members of each particular institution, thus making it possible to attribute the significance pertinent to each particular circumstance. The findings revolve around the key role of social compromise throughout the educational process: students whose parents are more involved in their children's education, along with parental participation in school activities, are the principal factors taken into account by the teachers, a crucial aspect with regard to the evaluation process. The differences between one family and another (the higher or lower levels of commitment) are also expressed in relationship to their children and the school's selection process: the institutional approach to the creation of the school's hierarchical system.
