Summary

Introduction

The present work analyzes the access of deaf people fluent in Brazilian Sign Language in the National High School Exam, which was created to measure the performance based on the curriculum and on the High School guidelines, which acquired the purpose of providing the access of High school seniors to higher education. When available in an accessible format, such exams are designed to include people with different specificities and members of minority language communities, as mentioned by Silva (2015). In this sense, the video version of the Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (Enem, National High School Exam) in Língua Brasileira de Sinais (Libras, Brazilian Sign Language) benefits people who are fluent in that language. Enforced through Decree 5.626 of December 2005, the parameters for the provision of bilingual education have obtained visibility (Senna, 2019), such as the mandatory academic training of the Tradutor e Intérprete de Língua de Sinais (TILS, Sign Language Translator and Interpreter)
