Breve análise do desempenho em língua portuguesa das escolas municipais de Matriz de Camaragibe no SAEB - 2021

Abstract

This work presents a brief study on the performance in Portuguese language of the municipal schools of Matriz de Camaragibe in the Basic Education Assessment System – Saeb, 2021 edition. Based on official reports from the Ministry of Education and academic studies on external evaluations in Brazil (Gatti, 2013; Fernandes, 2016), an analysis was conducted on the scores obtained by the municipal schools of Matriz de Camaragibe and an overview of the students' proficiency in Portuguese language was outlined. It was found that the schools have scores below the national average and are far from the established government target, making it clear that the deficient numbers are related to adverse socioeconomic factors. Furthermore, there are flaws in the teaching of languages, notably in the teaching of reading, making it necessary to develop continuous training for teachers, so that they are equipped to develop assertive teaching strategies aimed at forming proficient readers. Schools also need to be structured for the teaching of reading.
