Abstract

This dissertation investigates how policies are implemented in the public life of a private school and public school education in the municipality of Santa Maria, considering the extension of compulsory education in elementary school. In view of this analysis, define general objective is to identify possible changes related to daily school life experienced by teachers in the teaching profession and other subjects in the exercise of management, considering the extension of compulsory education in elementary school. We established the following objectives: To analyze the views of teachers about educational policies that increased the basic education of eight to nine years, identify the changes made in the administrative, physical and educational; know the implications and possibilities that the proposed extension of compulsory education brought to the fundamental teaching. To meet the objectives proposed in this study, we chose a qualitative approach, the case study. We favor as sources of information on structured interviews with teachers in the exercise of management and teachers in the teaching profession who work in classes that have changed. For analysis of data collected and the categories of research and its ramifications, we adopted the content analysis. Data analysis allowed to understand how educational policies, in particular, the intentions of the legislators leave the documents to legitimize the day-to-day schools. We analyzed that the lack of subsidies and guidelines on the proposal before and during the implementation process, feelings of doubt, insecurity and discomfort were experienced by teachers in the teaching profession and the administration and parents. Even colleagues with knowledge of the public policy of the EF of nine years, were considered insufficient. Because of the school community does not feel like participants in the construction of the legal prerogative flagged, it arrived in a hierarchical and imposed. By promoting the mandatory inclusion of the child at six years old at the EF school everyday, we can say that destructured what was hitherto established. To fulfill its role in legitimizing public policy, schools have sought, within its limitations, implement the proposal. Changes in the daily school driven by experienced teachers in the teaching profession and financial management were significant in both contexts. The dialogues contained tissue with colleagues led us to explore the various implications and multiple possibilities that the proposed extension of compulsory primary education brought to the teaching practices experienced. We conclude that the policy of expansion of the EF of nine years is in the process studied in the everyday. Well, to say that there were improvements in the quality of learning, the acquisition of knowledge such as literacy and literacy, it takes time, constant monitoring and evaluation. We assume also the legitimization of PE nine years in education is linked to educational performance, considering that there are laws that promote the changes to ensure the qualification in education, but the teaching practices developed by teachers. It is they who, daily, experience the educational practices in the current education system.
