New Secondary Education: full-time schools policy analysis

ABSTRACT

This paper analyzes the Policy of Promoting Full-Time Secondary Schools, which prompts the Brazilian New Secondary Education to identify possibilities for ecosystemic education. Its theoretical basis is plural, based on complexity and governance. Methodology includes document analysis, survey with schools, and immersion in a school in the Brazilian Federal District. Based on critical discourse analysis, it concluded that there is room for self-eco-organization of local policies, indicating that reform does not take place in norms or resources but in people’s actions, in the context of practice. Failure to allocate financial resources and information can compromise sustainability.
