The motivation presented in this dissertation was fed by the instability evident in the process of creation and in the attempt to consolidate the Normal School of Juiz de Fora. Being the target of constant criticism and debates, the role of the Normal School, as well as its permanence, motivated proposals, reforms and demonstrations, which involved not only political power, but also society. These notes were observed in both journals of the city, such as the Jornal do Commercio and Correio de Minas, as well as in documents found in the Mineiro Public Archives, such as reports of inspectors and teachers correspondences. Some of the publications present in these journals expressed and, in a way, mobilized the population to take action against its obliteration, through petitions and representations submitted to the State Government, often praising not only the Normal School, but mostly Juiz de Fora, considered the most important city of the Zona da Mata of Minas Gerais. Thus, the discussions about the institution were mapped, raising questions about the placement of the different social actors in regards to the institution which, even after its obliteration, did not cease to be the subject of debate. Furthermore, they wove some reflections on the JoãoPinheiros Primary and Normal Education (1906), in regards to normal teaching, specifically in the context of Juiz de Fora. Therefore, issues like the preference of women for teaching, the teacher's role and institutes equivalent to the Model Normal School of Belo Horizonte were addressed.
