| Summary: | The present work aimed to check if there is a gradual raising of the students´ disillusion with school learning as the grades proceed. The data was collected by the teachers and student’s answers to specific questionnaires for each group. The results reassured the literature in the point that most of the students become disinterested with learning at school as they reach higher grades. The idea that learning at school is “very cool” lowered in higher grades and the incidence of students who don’t like to learn at school raised in higher grades. Teachers´ answers are also similar when related to the conception of learning at school. Thus, teachers and students agree that learning at school becomes less and less appreciated as students grow up. |
