The dissertation addresses the City Policies of Educational Qualification for the Education of Ethnic-Racial Relationships in the School: The case of Queimados, which deals with the emblematic qualification of the teachers in service under Law 10.639 / 2003, which changed the LDBEN n 9394/1996. In this context, it is possible to verify that Brazil does not have a serious policy of social inclusion of the black ones. The indicators produced by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, through the National Program for Household Samples are full and unequivocal about the lack of participation of the black person on television media and the low self-esteem that he has in relation to his personal identity. Afro-Brazilian children must be proud of themselves, respect and learn to love and admire the color of their skin, their physical features, their hair, and so on. The quota policy becomes a measure that, besides expanding the labor market, contributes to new references for people, whether they are black or not. This way, the existing prejudice can be eliminated with the rescue of the self-esteem lost in the process of slavery, which continues until now, in the view of Brazilian society. The policy of affirmative action, which in recent years has been adopted in Brazil, at national, state and city levels, has been reduced to one of its instruments: the quota policy. These measures must be improved so that they do not become the instruments of their opponents, in affirming the prophecy of those who hope for their failure. It is worth noting that the Federal Constitution of 1988 made it possible to redress ethnic inequalities through one of its principles, equality. This research aims to identify how Law 10.639 / 2003, contributes to teachers formation, in order to reinforce racial equality policy, and it has even introduced changes in LDBEN. The methodology adopted is qualitative, although it uses data from the quantitative paradigm, using the following instruments: documentary analysis, observation, questionnaires and interviews. Finally, it is intended to conclude that the teacher training contemplates the modifications introduced by this law, thus enabling, the achievement of said affirmative action policy. The methodology includes an opinion survey (quantitative) with the teaching staff, employees from the Education Department of Queimados, located in Baixada Fluminense - RJ, in order to know whether or not it applies what is foreseen in the current LDBEN, in order to verify how students notice the influence of the mentioned law as changes in their lives; and therefore, to know if the present law modified that society, that is, to compare legal formalism to social reality.
