The research was conducted with a sampling, for convenience of 100 parents and 100 teachers in the city of Americana / SP. Two questionnaires had been used as instruments: one for the parents and another one for the teachers, these questionnaires were prepared from existing research on the subject of this study. For the statistical treatment was carried out an exploratory analysis of data through a descriptive statistics (frequency, percentage, deviation standard, minimum, median and maximum) and bar graphs. For the comparative analysis, test t was used from Student, Fisher s exact test, "Qui-Square Test" and studies about education for the media (1997, 2005, and 2007). The guiding hypotheses have been expressed in this way: The conceptions that the parents and teachers had presented on the education for the televising media in the school are positive and very similar. The education and socioeconomic level of parents and teachers influence their television habits as well as the guidance given to children about the education for the televising media. Both parents and teachers know what Indicative Classification is but they can not define it properly, therefore they do not legitimize it as one of the forms to protect children and adolescents of inappropriate contents from media. Besides providing a broad idea of parents and teachers TV habits and issues relating to education for the media, the data indicated that the hypotheses were proven, evidencing a significant association between parents and teachers (Qui-Square; p-value<0.001) on how the school can help children become more critical and selective about what TV offers to them.
