Abstract

The present dissertation is developed within the scope of the Professional Masters in Management and Evaluation of Education (PPGP) of the Center for Public Policies and Education Evaluation (CAEd) of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (UFJF). This case study wanted to discuss the implementation of “Ensino Medio Integral Integrado” in Minas Gerais under the vision of the curricular flexibility. The defined objectives were to write strategies to develop the curriculum management at schools that implanted “Ensino Medio Integral Integrado”, to describe the context of implementation of this Program in the state, from the High School Department’s vision and to analyze the curriculum from the schools that implemented “Ensino Medio Integral Integrado” in 2017. For this, 44 curricular matrices from these schools, with the focus to identify the contents that the students chose for the flexible part of the curriculum and if they were attended from the school managers. At last, our objective was to investigate if the curricular flexibility caused changes in the pedagogical action at these schools and to understand the difficulties that these schools face to implement this new curriculum. To get the necessary data, it was used as methodology the qualitative research and as instruments were used interviews with the Program coordinators who work at Central Department of Education, questionnaires with the directors or coordinators who work at the 44 schools where “Ensino Medio Integral Integrado” was implemented in 2017 and documental analysis of the curricular matrices adopted in these schools in 2017, and questionnaires with the students’ choices. Through the analysis, we found difficulties, principally, in the implementation of “Ensino Medio Integral Integrado” related to lack of formation for teaches and to the financial resources that come for the Program, problems with the use of these resources that are centralized in the Central Department of Education, lack of resources at schools to have the classes of the flexible part of curriculum and lack of adequate school structures to offer the high school during the full time. In the last chapter was written an Educational Action Plan, with proposes of distance and in-person formation for teachers, educational specialists and managers to have changes in the pedagogical school practice, suggestions for a continuous and efficient monitoring, and a purpose to solve problems related to the resources that are destined to the implementation of the high school in full time so that the schools overcome the difficulties in the implementation of “Ensino Medio Integral Integrado”, related to the development of curriculum.
