Resumo: As part of a wide ranging project concerning education and health, aiming both to update and develop new materials and methods for 1st Grade schools, the present study investigated the state of knowledge and prevalence of helminthic diseases in school populations. Interviews and parasitological exams undertaken in four schools (two experimental and two controls) on the outskirts of Belo Horizonte showed: a. that both teachers and pupils have little information concerning helminthic diseases as well as incorrect notions and ignorance of the mechanisms of transmission; b. high prevalence in the school: 69.0% and 76.0% (Bairro Gorduras) and 46.0% and 24.0% (Vale do Jatobá and Barreiro de Cima) in the first year of study (1988). Comparing the four schools, there is a direct relationship between the living conditions of the pupils and the indices of prevalence. Considering the fact that such helminthic diseases are known to have been present for a long time, it is a striking how removed the school is from the problems and realities of its pupils

Nesta parte do estudo, complementar ao artigo anterior (SCHALL et al.), através de entrevistas e exames parasitológicos de fezes realizados em quatro escolas municipais da periferia de Belo Horizonte, buscou-se investigar a prática pedagógica e a prevalência de helmintíases entre os escolares. Os resultados demonstraram que: a) tanto professores quanto alunos apresentaram escassas informações a respeito das helmintoses, assim como noções incorretas e desconhecimento de mecanismos de transmissão; b) altas prevalências nas escolas sendo de 68,0% e 76,0% (Bairro Gorduras) e 46,0% e 24,0% (Vale do Jatobá e Barreiro de Cima) no 1º ano de estudo (1988). Comparando-se as quatro escolas, encontrou-se uma associação das condições habitacionais dos alunos e os índices de prevalência. Considerando o fato de tais helmintíases serem sabidamente prevalentes a longo prazo nessas regiões, percebe-se quão alheia está a escola em relação aos problemas da realidade de seus escolares.
