Objective: analyze the level of knowledge of teachers about asthma and learn about their experiences with asthma exacerbations at school. Method: This is a mixed explanatory sequential study carried out with kindergarten and elementary school teachers. Initially, we applied an online form composed of the Newcastle Asthma Knowledge Questionnaire and a characterization instrument. After that, the teachers who claimed to have experienced severe asthma in the school environment participated in the qualitative stage by means of written statements. The quantitative data were analyzed by descriptive and analytical statistics, using the Mann-Whitney test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Spearman correlation coefficient, and univariate and multivariate linear regression. The qualitative data analysis followed the steps recommended by the deductive thematic content analysis technique. All the ethical precepts of research with human beings were respected. Results: Of the 201 teachers who participated in the study, 132 showed an unsatisfactory level of knowledge. The variables "time in the job" and "asthma diagnosis" were significantly related to the knowledge score (p=0.017, p=0.006, respectively); therefore, the teachers with the highest knowledge scores were those with the shortest time in the job and who had been diagnosed with asthma. In the qualitative stage, 35 teachers participated and the statements corroborated the quantitative findings, especially regarding the lack of knowledge about the disease and the consequent unpreparedness to help the child in crisis, as well as reports of feeling safe among asthmatic teachers. Conclusion: The knowledge of most teachers about asthma is unsatisfactory, and it is relevant to structure future educational interventions.
