Censo escolar e o desafio frente às inconsistências de informações no sistema do Educacenso

Abstract

The present dissertation was developed under the Professional Master's Program of the Postgraduate Program in Management and Evaluation of Education (PPGP) of the Center for Public Policies and Education Evaluation of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (CAEd / UFJF). The studied management case, which discussed how the process of insertion and monitoring of School Census data in schools in the state network of Cacoal - RO, seeks to minimize the inconsistencies in the educational system, making the data closer to reality. For this, it was necessary to follow the data insertion process in schools. The general objective was to analyze the completion and monitoring of Educacenso from the report of students transferred and not admitted after (students who were not included in the second stage of the School Census) in any modality in the current year in the state network of Cacoal (RO) , proposing an Educational Action Plan (SAP). The report presents students who requested transfer and were not inserted in the Educacenso system by the destination school, thus configuring that they were evaded. The theoretical basis of this research has as main support the Caderno de Estudos do Censo Escolar de Educação Básica and Educacenso system, also anchoring itself in authors that deal with subjects such as learning rights, culture, school organization and management, educational policies, educational systems and social control. As methodology, the qualitative research was used, and the following instruments of data collection were used: documentary analysis, interviews and questionnaires applied to the actors directly and indirectly related to the theme. The research was relevant, since the data of the School Census are used as a strategic planning tool, responsible for the database for formulating and implementing public policies, for the financial transfer to schools and for the organization of the national evaluation system. The survey results showed that this report did not reliably present all out-of-school students in 2016. This has serious consequences for the protection of the right to education, since it indicates possible ignorance about data of school dropout. From these results, it is proposed an Educational Action Plan with actions that seek to minimize the inconsistencies found with the research. As it was necessary to carry out actions before the conclusion of the research, given the peculiarities of the Educacenso system, actions were implemented and implemented. The research provided the opportunity to discuss themes related to the right to learning and the role of the actors within the school, as well as the social control function and the tools offered through the School Census.
