So that this happened, it was made a bibliographical revision to understand the meaning of teaching along the history. The theoretical basis facilitated to accompany, in a line of time, the genesis and the evolution of the educational formation in Europe that resulted in the creation of the Normal School as trainer agency, for excellence, for the primary teaching. It was observed that the teaching staff passed for the sieve of the representation that privileged the moral and athical formation, in detriment of the intellect.
