A implantação da reforma para o ensino médio (Lei nº 13.415/2017) na rede estadual de educação do Maranhão e suas implicações ao processo formativo dos estudantes

Abstract

In this research, the objective was to analyze the implementation of the secondary education reform (Law nº 13,415/2017) in the state education network of Maranhão and its implications for the students' training process. This research proposes a methodological approach of a qualitative nature, based on the analysis of bibliographic and documentary research. The research results showed that the secondary education reform movement we are focusing on requires the establishment of an analytical scale that takes into account state policies, especially in relations between state education departments and the private sector. This context presupposes that the reconfiguration of secondary education in the State consolidates its institutionalization within the framework of flexible learning, which is the pedagogical expression of the flexibilization of the flexible accumulation regime, promoting an education for less and simplistic. It allows us to interpret the secondary education reform as a product of capitalist logic that aims to adapt education to the demands of the labor market. The data also showed that the secondary education reform promoted changes that aim to intensify globalized trends in the school environment, which bring with them negative implications in the educational field, as it is based on flexibility, standardization and the development of privatizing processes. These aspects deepen social and educational inequalities, favoring the distancing of young people from the indisputable right to quality public education. The Maranhão reality regarding secondary education reform does not differ from what is proposed in official documents, with passive adherence, without broad criticism. The thesis is confirmed that the implementation of the reform in Maranhão's secondary education brings with it flexible training aligned with the flexible accumulation regime that directs education in Brazil and that promotes student training based on flexible learning to train flexible workers.
