The study aimed to investigate the contributions of training interventions for the reconstruction of Health Promotion (HP) practices in schools. This is a qualitative study, characterizing itself as an action research. The research was developed in a primary school of the public network of a municipality on the western border of Rio Grande do Sul. Twelve teachers from the final years participated in the study. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, recordings, subsequently transcribed and analyzed. Four formations and registrations were carried out in the field diary. To analyze the data, was used as a methodological contribution, the content analysis proposed by Bardin and descriptive statistics procedures to present frequencies and percentages. In the pre-intervention analyzes, four categories emerged: HP related to actions of prevention of diseases and orientation to society; HP related to a comprehensive care of the needs of the population; HP related to health care aimed at the well-being and HP related to man and his constitutional characteristics. After interventions, there were changes in teachers' conceptions, which contributes to the issue being addressed in a meaningful way for students and school reality.
