Full-Time Education in High School: an experience in Minas Gerais

Abstract

This article sought to analyze the implementation of the Full-Time High School Support Program in Minas Gerais, contained in Law No. 13,415/2017, which enacted the reform of this stage of basic education in Brazil. From this perspective, it focused on an analysis of the documents about fully-time education prepared by the State Department of Education of Minas Gerais (2017 to 2020) and an analysis of the empirical data produced, through interviews with the subjects involved in this process. The data show the difficulties found by the schools to carry out this Program and the strategies created by the subjects involved for the implementation of the proposed activities.
