Considering the Information Society and the need for learning the English language (EL), we can see that the learning of this curriculum component is not satisfactory, since students cannot express themselves in real communication situations. The educational literature points to the integration of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) as educational tools towards a meaningful learning. Therefore, the general purpose of the present research is to analyze the pedagogical use of ICTs in the teaching and learning of the EL, based on the daily practice of high school teachers. Thus, we performed a bibliographical research on the teaching of the EL in Brazil and on ICTs. Then, we carried out a documentary research, analyzing the Political-pedagogic Project (PPP) of the research field school, comparing it with the curriculum benchmarks. The empirical research was developed according to the qualitative method, through a case study in a primary and secondary public school of Paraiba, located in Cajazeiras. The analysis of data was based on the confrontation of theorists such as Pierre Levy (2000), Manuel Castells, (2006), Libâneo (2000 and 2003), among others, who point out to the use of ICTs as educational tools, the curriculum benchmarks and the speech of the investigated actors. As data collection instrument, we used the semi-structured interview technique with teachers, in order to describe their profile, especially, with regard to education, their conceptions and practices. We also applied questionnaires to students, as an attempt to draw their profile, as well as their expectations and perceptions. Our analysis reveals that the school does not effectively use digital technology, but we can observe the integration of other technologies to teaching practice. The statements of the investigated actors point to the ratification of our assumptions, as they consider ICTs as elements which can boost the teaching and learning process. We highlight that, although students recognize the daily presence of the EL and the importance of this curriculum component to their education, they have not achieved a satisfactory performance, what makes them to be excluded from the Information Society. In this regard, we point out that laws and guidelines are not sufficient. Aspects related to teachers continuing education should also be considered, so that they can update their pedagogical practice face to the new educational requirements.
