Abstract

The aim of this paper was to investigate the implementation of Mais Educação Program - PME by means of interviews with individuals in charge of its development at the school level: principals, PME coordinators, PME monitors. The research was conducted in six schools of Petropolis/RJ municipal system with 33 participants. The results indicate that schools face obstacles concerning the establishment of partnerships with other institutions for the development of the program´s activities; the school principals value PME for its assistance character and the support provided to families; and the monitors present weak links with the program due to the low value of the allowance. All these aspects challenge the volunteer nature of their participation.
