This article presents the results of the research "the Educability of the subject: an approach from the social imaginary of teachers under training"; whose purpose was to understand the dynamics of trainee teachers’ social imaginary about educability as a dimension of pedagogy. The reference for the study was based on the theory of social imaginary and its applications in education. The approach and design has been developed leaning on the main functions of discourse analysis and its relations with the dimensions of the social imaginary; the data analysis was performed based on the social coordinates. The study shows that the dynamics of the social imaginary, that trainee teachers configure, is set from what is socially agreed and accepted as imaginary instituted, this with occasional hints of radical/instituting imaginary. In this sense, it gathers the normalization in educational institutions, but then again it gathers projects and psychosomatic demonstrations, some of which are seen as an option for social realization. Therefore, the processes of education and teacher training, are composed, primarily, by practical knowledge and permeated by disciplinary and pedagogical knowledge, curriculum and teaching, but at the same time, crossed by the everyday symbolic and cultural baggage that trainee teacher brings along.
