Resumo: The way the current school education is structured contributes to the separation of knowledge in subjects and contents more and more fragmented and impervious. The strong disciplinary doesn’t allow the student to have the basic notion of the relations among knowledge, so that they have no linking with the reality and fails to contribute to the necessary significance for the learning. This fragmented vision of knowledge is harmful to the formation of the scientific spirit of the student. The school interdisciplinary, which looks for restoring links among subjects, appears to reduce this fragmentation. As active characters of education, teachers are fundamental in this process, and we believe that only from the joint effort of the teaching staff is possible that school interdisciplinary can happen. In order to know the relationship between teaching performance and knowledge fragmentation, this research carried out interviews with teachers from scientific disciplines of high school; aiming at recognizing the perception they have about the reality of scientific school education trying to discover reasons, consequences and manifestations of knowledge fragmentation on this level of teaching. The interviews were conducted with six teachers of a private school in the metropolitan region of Porto Alegre. From a qualitative approach, we analyzed the material obtained from interviews using the Text Analysis Discourse.This research allowed the evidence that the conceptions teachers have of their discipline and science in general are closely tied to how they work in the classroom. We noticed that teachers recognize the need of interdisciplinary work and point the dialogue between them as a determinant for the occurrence of interdisciplinary in the school. However, in spite of admitting that we need to change the way of action, interviewees indicate the lack of time, the lack of encouragement from the school and the large amount of contents required by the curriculum as factors that prevent the accomplishment of interdisciplinary education.
