Reprovação no primeiro ano do ensino médio em uma escola estadual de Ribeirão das Neves - MG

Abstract

The case study that gives rise to this dissertation analyzed the factors that influence the high failure rates in the first year classes of the High School of the Alpha State School in Ribeirão das Neves, Minas Gerais. For this, we sought to understand the history of reprobation in Brazil and the legislation that regulates this modality of teaching. A diagnosis was made to elucidate the factors that cause retention and to propose alternatives for improvement of learning, impacting on the decrease of failure rates in the first year of high school. The surveys carried out on the reproach at the Alpha State School point to higher indices than the disapprovals in the State of Minas Gerais and Brazil, which is of concern, considering that the numbers of failure in this series are quite high. The researches conducted through semi-structured interviews and documentary analysis sought to verify what are the factors that cause these high failure rates and, later, an Educational Action Plan was created to help in the management decision making and thus decrease the reprobation.
