Análise dos fatores relacionados ao baixo desempenho dos estudantes da escola de ensino médio professora Marieta Santos no estado do Ceará

Abstract

This dissertation was developed within the scope of the Professional Master in Management and Evaluation of Public Education (PPGP) of the Center for Public Policy and Evaluation of Education of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (CAEd / UFJF). This case study presents as its theme an analysis of the factors related to the low academic performance of the students of the Professora Marieta Santos High School (EEMPMS), in the state of Ceará, under the perception of the teachers, managers and students. To this end, the results of the external evaluations and the indicators of pass, fail and abandonment were considered. In this perception, such results are considered low compared to the city of Bela Cruz and the state of Ceará. Thus, this paper seeks to answer the following question: what are the main factors that are associated with students' poor academic outcomes in external evaluations and internal outcomes, and how can the management team act to improve those outcomes? The methodology used in this research was a qualitative case study with field observation, document analysis, focus group with five students and interviews with five teachers, with the principal and a pedagogical coordinator. The analysis of the collected data identified student infrequency, low student perspective, teaching practices, lack of family monitoring and student performance in elementary school as the main factors associated with poor student performance. In the Educational Action Plan (PAE), actions are presented that seek to combat or mitigate the effects of these factors, promoting the intensification of existing actions in the school as well as the implementation of new actions, striving for a management with democratic principles and prioritizing student learning.
