Studies contribute to the School Health Program. However, only some investigate the work process of professionals to understand the possible conformation of intersectoral and integrated projects, or technologies as mediators in work practices. The present study sought to analyze the practices of professionals in a Family Health Unit/Primary Health Care unit in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. This qualitative case study involved a Primary Health Care unit and four schools. The data collection procedures comprised semi-structured interviews, document analysis, and participant observation. The analysis categories were built from the theoretical framework of the health work process by Mendes Gonçalves. The results showed: weak partnership relationships between agents; professionals' perception of the object of work, predominantly identifying diseases and preponderant clinical knowledge vis-à-vis the knowledge of collective health. Health actions gathered the agents, but they presented hegemonic, disjointed, sectoral practices, focused on the disease, and conducted mainly through lectures. No integrated and intersectoral projects or educational technology as an additional resource in the work practices were observed. The products deriving from the participation of all will improve articulation between the professionals working in these spaces
