Abstract(s)
O presente estudo inserido no relatório final do curso de Mestrado em Educação Pré-escolar da Escola superior de Educação de Coimbra, teve como objetivo compreender as perspetivas das famílias e da Educadora de Infância relativamente à Educação em Sexualidade de crianças do Jardim de Infância.
Trata-se de um estudo exploratório, de natureza essencialmente qualitativa, com abordagem mista, tendo como instrumentos de recolha de dados dois questionários, um dirigido às famílias de crianças entre os 4 e os 5 anos, e outro à Educadora de Infância responsável pelo grupo. Os dados foram recolhidos em formato digital e analisados por meio de análise de conteúdo e análise descritiva simples.
Os resultados revelaram que a maioria das famílias considera importante abordar a Sexualidade desde a infância, destacando a curiosidade natural das crianças, a prevenção de abusos e o desenvolvimento de valores como o respeito. No entanto, a educadora mostrou uma certa resistência à abordagem da temática nesta faixa etária, alegando ausência de formação e considerando-a inapropriada.
Conclui-se que existe uma visão mais aberta por parte das famílias, ainda que condicionada por fatores culturais e de formação, e uma limitação na prática pedagógica, influenciada por lacunas na formação profissional e pela ausência de orientação institucional clara. O estudo destaca a necessidade de uma articulação mais eficaz entre Jardim de Infância e família e a urgência da formação contínua dos profissionais de educação no âmbito da Educação em Sexualidade.
This study, included in the final report of the Masters degree in Preschool Education at the Coimbra Higher School of Education, aimed to understand the perspectives of families and the Kindergarten Teacher regarding Sexuality Education for Kindergarten children. This is an exploratory study, essentially qualitative in nature, with a mixed approach, using two questionnaires as data collection instruments, one addressed to families of children between 4 and 5 years old, and the other to the Kindergarten Teacher responsible for the group. The data was collected in digital format and analyzed using content analysis and simple descriptive analysis. The results revealed that most families consider it important to address Sexuality from childhood, highlighting children's natural curiosity, preventing abuse and developing values such as respect. However, the Kindergarten Teacher showed some resistance to approaching the topic in this age group, claiming a lack of training and considering it inadequate. It is concluded that there is a more open vision on the part of families, although conditioned by cultural and educational factors, and a limitation in pedagogical practice, influenced by gaps in professional training and the absence of clear institutional guidance. The study highlights the need for more effective coordination between kindergarten and family and the urgency of continuing education for education professionals in the field of Sexuality Education.
