Abstract

This article comes from a literature review about Disability in the SciElo database, which explains the permanent concerns about the studies on causality and learning and development strategies. The way this disabled population is seen and dealt with is hegemonic and based on looking for absences and differences related to a so-called normal corporeity. National and international legal documents are presented, which allows the understanding of how the educational service aiming this segment of the population is organized, as well as its subordination to the logic of the diagnostics production by the Health System. The terminological change from disability to functional differences is discussed. Finally, through the distinction between differences and the different in school, it is presented an outline of collaboration for a schooling process from the human differences, not in spite of them: the rescue of the narratives.
