This article is a cut from the dissertation Master's thesis titled: Readapted teachers from a municipality on the north coast of SP: Changes and contradictions. The method used to carry out the research was a basic exploratory research, descriptive of a qualitative approach, carried out in the municipal teaching network of a municipality on the north coast of Sao Paulo. The population of this study was composed by the adhesion of 12 permanently readapted teachers. Data collection was carried out in May 2016 through a structured questionnaire technique. The official documents of the Municipal Teaching Secretariat were used as reference. The results showed that, although the readaptation is a strategy to mitigate the problems that cause the teacher to suffer, this strategy does not reach objectives, once the teachers, when being readapted, feel themselves to be blocked from their professional identity and excluded from the social environment. Which ideologically and professionally prepared to live throughout their professional career. The study points out that interventions and new public policies are necessary for reintegration and permanent psychological and emotional accompaniment to teachers who are readapted or in the process of readaptation.
