Abstract

The form assumed by assessment in a capitalist school cannot be decoupled from the very format of a school which is built to meet certain social functions of society. To exclude and subordinate have been the favorite functions that underpin the organization of the current school form. It occurs because, from this view, society is presented as a ready and finished datum and youth must resign to it. School is isolated by life and classroom is chosen as a privileged stage of the educational process. The structure took by assessment owes these decisions. By isolating itself from life, school isolates itself from the socially useful work, in its widest sense, what could be a key element in the constitution of the assessment process of school. But for that, school would have to assume another form, also making possible other systems of assessment.
