National learning Plan is still controversial points, evaluate MPs

Percent of GDP to be applied in the sector, increasing the number of masters and doctors in the universities and universal early youth instruction are between the controversial issues.
Leonardo Prado Gast?o not believe that increased authority investment in the industry for 10% of GDP.
Next week, MPs will resume discussions on the National culture Plan (PNE – PL 8035/10). The project, which was released by the Executive at the end of last year, contains the objectives of the sector for the next ten years. Until now, the special committee to examine the proposal has already held eight collective hearings on the subject in Brasilia and 17 seminars in the states. Even after the debates, however, still point parliamentary controversial issues in the text.
among the issues that should cause controversy are the goals of universalization of mainstream knowledge for disabled people, to promote the number of masters and doctors in the universities and approach of the average teacher salary income of other professionals with according learning. The largest controversial item, however, is what increases from 5% to 7% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) common spending on education by 2020.
The proposal has received the PNE 2906 amendments, which are proposed amendments to the text. Of these, 216 relate to the goal of financing. Entities related to the sector defended the use of at least 10% of GDP in education . Ms F?tima Bezerra (PT-RN), who is chairman of the knowledge and education supports comparable index. “You can not think of eradicating extreme poverty, as established the President Dilma, without allocating significant possessions in education,” he says. But the president’s special commission of the NAP, Mr Gaston Vieira (PMDB-MA), is less optimistic: “The instruction minister [Fernando Haddad] said that this discussion has been closed in the government. Unfortunately, I do not think you can change that goal. ”
Lula LopesRelator matter, Vanhoni substitute must submit by September.
The 5% of GDP currently applied in instruction is divided between the federal, states and municipalities. The division, however, consonant to Vieira, is unbalanced. Is that the federal government, which deals primarily with the technical and higher education, today it accounts for only 20% of common spending in the area. The remainder of the bill (80%) is borne by states and municipalities, who are in encumbrance of basic education.
As the rapporteur of the bill, Rep. Angelo Vanhoni (PT-PR), the distribution of spending will be on the agenda of the special committee comparable semester. He, however, said that “thinks it unlikely” that states and municipalities to increase their spending on instruction to achieve the goal of the NAP. “As a rule, these entities have aimed much of its budget for the area,” he explains.
consonant to the rapporteur, a substitute to the government’s proposal should be submitted by September such year. The initial deadline was August, but the delay was necessary, consonant Vanhoni, because of the big number of amendments written. Next month, the special committee should also engage in other debates. Two are already confirmed: one on the role of the entities related to science culture and the other about the legal form of the NAP. After submission of the substitute, there will be new deadline for submitting amendments. The expectation is that the proposal be voted on by the commission by November this year. Then she goes to the Senate.
Teachers
Leonardo PradoF?tima advocates expansion of the target for early youth education.
For Gaston Vieira, a target linked to the qualification of teachers in universities should also generate controversy in the House. It is proposed that the government, by 2020, 75% of the teaching staff of higher knowledge institutions are made up of teachers and doctors. Of this total, suitable to the Executive’s proposal, 35% should have doctorate. The rule applies to social and private schools. These, says Vieira, will strive to change the goal. “Private institutions are strongly coordinating to fight such measure and they have plenty capacity for mobilization in Congress,” he says.
F?tima Bezerra should also ask for changes in the goal that refers to the expansion of places of culture. The government’s proposal provides universal care for children aged four and five years, in addition to expanding the service of youngsters zero to three years for 50% of the group. “Can there be more daring. Ideally, universal enrollment of every person young aged zero to five years, “he argues.
Another suggestion by Mrs is the equalization of salaries of teachers of elementary education to those practiced in the rest of the labor market. The government’s proposal only establishes the “approximation” of equivalent income. “Why should other professionals earn more than teachers?” He asks. according to Fatima, the government “welcomes” the two amendments.
