Limitações Da Participação E Gestão “democrática” Na Rede Estadual Paulista

The recent claims of the students from São Paulo highlight the issue of democratic management. Students Associations, School Councils, and Parent-Teacher Associations have proven institutions, although rudimentary in practice, fundamental to carry out a democratic life in schools. This paper considers two features: do an investigation of the legal and political field of school democratic management since the first democratic opening signals to the neoliberal advance. Then, the inquire points up the proposals of management by educational policies in the State of São Paulo from the first “reorganization” at 1995, which could be identified as a “shocks” of business management with administrative, financial and pedagogical aspects, that interfere and devalue the democratic management in State schools. © 2016, Centro de Estudos Educacao e Sociedade - CEDES.

Da universalização do ensino fundamental ao desafio da qualidade: uma análise histórica From the universalization of teaching to the challenge of quality: a historical analysis

Partindo de uma análise de dados referentes à matrícula no ensino fundamental e médio, o artigo argúi que a universalização do ensino fundamental, processo ainda não inteiramente concluído, representa mudança de qualidade na dinâmica das contradições educacionais no Brasil. Se, de um lado, é processo de amplo sentido democratizador, por meio do qual parcelas da população historicamente alijadas progridam no interior do sistema de ensino, por outro, faz com que os processos de diferenciação social e de exclusão mudem de qualidade e de lugar. Emerge daí a crescente importância do debate acerca da qualidade de ensino como componente do direito à educação.<br>This paper analyzes data on school enrollment in the fundamental and medium education in Brazil. It argues that the universalization of fundamental education, which is not yet concluded, represents a quality change in the dynamics of the educational contradictions in Brazil. Although it is a democratization process, through which social historically excluded groups can progress within the educational system, it changes the place and quality of social differentiation and exclusion. A debate on educational quality as a component of the right to education is thus more and more important
