📋 Tender Overview
The results of the first cycle of continuous learning assessment and the possible pedagogical interventions, based on the assessment data, was a Webinary theme promoted by the Ministry of Education (MEC), through the Secretariat of Basic Education (SEB). The exam is part of the National Literate Child Commitment (CNCA). Transmitted by, the meeting also served as a preparation for the next cycles, which will take place in June and September.
This assessment is not just a time to verify whether or not the child is following the learning we want, it is actually more than that. It is where we can find out and understand where the main gaps we need to handle and plan our pedagogical and management actions to overcome these gaps, said MEC Basic Education Policies and Guidelines, Alexsandro do Nascimento Santos. We need to connect this assessment with a process of reflection on our own practice, so that we can come closer to the students who need it most, to see in detail the reality of the learning of each student, class, school and school network, he added.
The General Coordinator of Literacy of the Ministry of Education, Joao Paulo Mendes, presented the figures of this first cycle, ended on April 30. He highlighted the 88% participation among the registered students. It is a very expressive number. However, when we compare the data with the school census, we see that there is still margin to continue moving forward and increasing students access to CNCA tests, said Joao Paulo.
Tests are applied to students enrolled first to the fifth year of elementary school. In this first phase of the CNCA, considering the students registered on the platform, the participation of the Southeast (92%), Midwest (89%) and Northeast (87%) were highlighted. The second cycle will be held between June 4 and 30, while the third stage will take place from September 3 to 29. This is a great opportunity to reflect on the results, but also to think about the equity related to students, especially those who are not adequate learning, to get more prepared for the upcoming evaluation cycles, said Joao Paulo.
The Webinar has gathered articulators of the National Network of Articulation of Management, Training and Mobilization (Renalfa), technical teams of network evaluation, representatives of the municipal and state education secretariats, school managers and teachers of the early years of elementary school. The evaluations are based on the reading, writing, mathematics and fluency components in reading.
Commitment - is carried out under collaboration between the Union and the federated entities. The goal is to ensure that 100% of Brazilian children are literate at the end of the 2nd year of elementary school, as provided for in Goal 5 of the National Education Plan (PNE). The program also seeks to ensure the recomposition of learning, focusing on the literacy of 100% of children enrolled in the 3rd, NO 4th year, in view of the impact of the pandemic for this audience.
