Challenges for Accessibility and Socialization of Children with Disabilities in a Municipal Elementary School in Altamira - Pará

Abstract

Context: Law No. 10,098, of December 2000, establishes general rules and basic criteria for promoting accessibility for people with disabilities or reduced mobility, and provides other provisions. Methods: This study presents a bibliographic research, using the search for articles in the databases Google Scholar, SciELO, magazines, and books. This qualitative research was conducted in a school in the municipality of Altamira, Pará. For data collection, a structured interview was used, with 3 participants who answered 13 open-ended questions. Results: Based on the answers, it is understood that accessibility for socialization in the face of difficulties encountered in the classroom is inadequate. Since students need to come and go with maximum independence to carry out their activities, there is still a lot to be achieved in terms of accessibility and socialization. Conclusions: Therefore, it is concluded that the problem presents itself as a major obstacle to the development of students with disabilities and to ensuring dignified public policies and accessibility for all citizens. It is expected that accessibility and socialization will be provided to all people with disabilities.
