The present article offers some reflections that have underpinned the analysis of the continuous training of teachers of the municipal schools of Uberaba – MG (Brazil). To understand the meaning of training, we have analyzed its aesthetic dimension, especially in the sense of the Greek paideia and in the interpretation of Gaston Bachelard, as well as its political dimension, according to Gramsci’s thought. The implementation of the cycle-oriented school system represented a breakthrough in the Education in the studied municipality. However, teachers were not sufficiently trained for this pedagogical proposal, and the reaction to it seems to relate more to the ideological aspect of the proposal than to the possible limitations of a teaching methodology consonant with the implemented innovation.
