PNE
The National Education Plan (PNE) is a document that establishes guidelines, goals and strategies for educational policy within a period of ten years. Based on the plan, governments structure their specific plans, decide purchases and direct investments, according to context and local reality.
According to the Ministry of Education, PNE is a plan for the whole country, with shared responsibilities between the Union, the States, the Federal District and the Municipalities. Because it is ten-day, it goes beyond different administrations of government, overcoming the discontinuity of public policies with each change of political-party conduction.
Salary increase for teachers, more vacancies in day care centers, better structure for schools and popular participation channels are some of the topics that are present in the new PNE.
