A series of measures to enhance the public school teachers will be announced this afternoon by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Minister of Education, Fernando Haddad, in Brasilia. Among the innovations is the launch of the First National Training Plan for Basic Education Teachers, ensuring the registration of teachers without a university degree in public institutions of higher education.

The waves begin to be offered from the second half of this year in 21 states that have partnered with the Ministry of Education (MEC). By 2014 the government has put the university on the banks 330 thousand teachers working in public schools, from kindergarten to high school. According to the Education Census 2007, about 600 thousand teachers, more than 1.8 million in year in public and private schools of basic education, have an undergraduate or work in different areas of the degree to which alumni .

To enable this group of teachers, 90 institutions of higher education (federal, state or local) will offer vacancies. The courses will be both in the normal courses as distance. In Paraná, eight universities participating in the government's plan, six of which already have places available in August this year (see the infographic). In total, the MEC will pass U.S. $ 1.9 billion in 2014 to partner institutions.
The rector of the Federal University of Parana (UFPR), Zaki Akel, is among the principals that will be received today by President Lula in Brasilia. According to Akel, the project should revitalize the school. "There are no plans to hire teachers. Can you meet with the faculty today. We have teachers career just waiting for the release of the engagement by the ministry. More than 80 ready to take. This release of the ministry, even can be given today, "he says.

With the new plan, the Coordination of Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (Capes), before only responsible for postgraduate studies, also assumes responsibility for training of teachers. According to the leader of the National Confederation of Workers in Education (CNTE), Juçara Dutra Vieira, a member of the Scientific-Technical Capes, this is one of the most important. "The Capes managed to make the proposition of a national policy for training, which will lay the foundations of education stimulated by the government. Should try to plant it with enough concrete for the future. Action can not be confined to that government. We must celebrate this initiative, but thinking that there may be an isolated incident, "he says.

Priority

In this first stage of the plan, as explained by the Minister of Education, Fernando Haddad, when she was in Curitiba in the early months, priority will be for initial training of teachers already working in public schools, in classrooms of early childhood education the school. "We need the young are attracted to join the career of teaching and be able not only to complete the degree, but to do a masters or doctorate later," he said.

The training covers three situations: teachers who do not have higher education (first degree): teachers already trained, but they teach in different area from where formed (second degree) and graduates with no degree, which need further studies to teaching exercise.

The teacher will do the registration for the courses through a computerized system, which is being prepared by the MEC. The same system will also have your CV registered and updated constantly. After the pre-registration of teachers and institutions, the state or municipal departments will make a strategic plan to align supply and demand for places. That's when the institutions decide how to prepare the selection process if there is more demand than seats.

The national plan for teacher education has to do with the jobs offered by the universities and federal institutes in their normal selection process, nor with the Program of Support for the Restructuring and Expansion of Federal Universities (Meetings), as these relate the training of new teachers.
