📋 Tender Overview
The Senate must again analyze the bill that creates the National Education System (SNE), this time, in the alternative form proposed by the Chamber of Deputies (). Now, the text provides for a national identification for each student and a platform that unites data on schools and quality of education. The House of Representatives approved the bill on Wednesday (3).
Federal, state and municipal governments should improve the articulation in education with new information and shared decisions. The evaluation is by Senator Flavio Arns (PSB-PR), original author of the bill.
Just as SUS has transformed health by adopting interfederative governance, SNE will also [do this in education]. This model does not remove autonomy from states and municipalities. On the contrary, the participation of these entities in policies, which today are centralized in the Ministry of Education, said on their social networks.
. As the deputies altered the text in the form of Deputy Rafael Britos substitute (MDB-AL), the rules of the National Congress require the text to return to the Senate.
SNE is foreseen in the Federal Constitution of 1988 as a way to eradicate illiteracy, improve teaching and promote scientific knowledge, among other objectives. According to the parliamentarians should have approved the implementation of the system by 2016, which did not occur.
Information system
The version of the deputies predicts that all students will have a unique national identifier of the student (Inue), which will be the same number as the CPF. This will allow more accurate data on students who abandon school, transport difficulties and school exchanges, for example.
In addition, the text provides for a future National Education Data Infrastructure (INDI), to unite information from establishments and education systems. Municipalities, States and Union have their own education systems, which will be able to talk to each other. On the other hand, municipalities will not be required to integrate into state systems.
Commission
The Federal Executive Power must create the Tripartite Education Intergenect Commission (CITE) to suggest common educational policies at the national level. For this, it will be composed of 18 representatives - six from the Union, six from the states and six of the municipalities. The Commission may propose priorities and divisions of responsibility for the MEC, state and municipal secretariats, for example.
It will also have the power to impose a minimum quality standard on basic education, which goes from day care to high school. The commission will be responsible for calculating the cost student quality indicator, which measures the need for schools and helps to define which places need the most investment.
The Bipartite Education Committees (CIBE) will be formed by six representatives of the respective state and six of their municipalities. It has a function similar to CITE, and all its decisions are optional.
Both committees were in the text approved in the Senate and were maintained by the deputies.
Basic education
The project provides for a national evaluation of basic education to indicate the performance of students and the management of public and private schools. At least 80% of students should participate, a rule already observed a few years ago. There will be minimum quality requirements for:
Career Plan and Salary Floor for Teachers
Minimum school journey
Number of teacher by students
Teacher training
Physical structure
Digital technologies
Appropriate approval rate
Currently, the diagnosis in basic education is made by the National Institute for Educational Studies and Research Anisio Teixeira (Inep) with similar parameters. From 2005, one of the instruments used by the agency was also called the National Evaluation of Basic Education, but was restructured in 2019.
The project requires states to develop their own evaluation systems to be integrated into the SNE. Municipalities should also ensure that their evaluations are linked to both systems.
Higher education
The Union will analyze higher education establishments through its own national evaluations: one for the level of undergraduate and one for the stricto sensu postgraduate degree, which encompasses masters, doctorate and postdoctoral. Diagnoses will be for public and private education, and will serve as the basis for the regulation of the sector by MEC.
Currently, Inep also evaluates the performance of university students through the National Student Performance Exam (ENADE). The so -called on -site evaluation serves for the accreditation of establishments by MEC.
Federal legislation
The project also reinforces certain structures that are now foreseen only in temporary laws or decisions of ministries. For this, the proposal is to include in federal law:
National Education Forum, which coordinates meetings on education in various regions. Currently, the Forum is foreseen in the National Education Plan, valid until 2025
Forum to accompany questions about the Profess Salary FloorORS, which works today based on Ordinance of the Ministry of Education;
Requirement that municipalities and states elaborate their own education plans every ten years. Currently, the forecast is in PNE 2014.
