Abstract

The objective of the study was to analyze the educational response offered by the State and binding educational institutions such as SENAME to young offenders in closed regime. A case study, with a qualitative approach, interviewing six young people (2 women and 4 men) between 14 and 20 years old, whose sentences range from 2 to 10 years. The interviews are complemented by stories from families and professionals in charge of the center. The results show an education focused on job skills, and a rigid and technical curriculum not adjusted to the characteristics of the young people. The evaluation represents a critical knot for the professional team, since it focuses on institutional requirements in terms of indicators and results.
