Políticas e gestão: o projeto da Escola da Floresta no combate às desigualdades sociais

Abstract

This article aims to bring research elements from a Municipal project entitled Escola da Floresta, in Caçapava do Sul-RS, together with the Eliana Bassi de Melo Municipal School. Model adapted by Educator Professor José Pacheco, from Escola da Ponte de Portugal and in partnership with Unipampa. It proposes to analyze management, direction and how classes are developed with active methodologies, to include socially vulnerable students. The example of management and public policies in practice aims to reduce social inequalities and provide quality education and opportunities. The project is a pilot and has been developed since 2019, including active during the pandemic, where students had online activities and classes. And it continues in full development, from which we can see the fruits of these seeds sown within this school community. The results obtained are that the project, although started with support from public policies, today survives on support sought by managers. And it demonstrates how larger projects inspire smaller cells to bring students together in the face of social inequality and social vulnerability. And how Escola da Floresta has this commitment to free schools and bringing methodologies that change the lives of those who attend there through simple actions.
