Análise do impacto das acções do governo, inseridas nos planos estratégicos de 1999 a 2016, para a melhoria da qualidade da educação primária em Moçambique

Abstract

Ensuring that all citizens attend and complete quality primary education is a goal that the Government of Mozambique has sought to achieve in its strategic planning. This paper seeks to analyze the impact of the Government's actions, included in the Strategic Education Plans from 1999 to 2016, to improve the quality of primary education. These actions are presented in the three Strategic Education Sector Plans approved by the Government in 1999, 2006, and 2012, the latter two aligned with the Millennium Development Goals. This analysis is based on data from the population censuses of 1997, 2007, and 2017. The analysis is justified in a context in which several studies have questioned the quality of primary education in Mozambique, stating that the government's actions to increase access rates conflict with the objectives of improving quality. This discussion, through bibliographic, documentary, and statistical analysis, found that primary education in Mozambique faces challenges in terms of quality. The conclusions of this work highlight that despite expanding access to education, government actions have not resulted in improved quality(TRADUÇÃO NOSSA)
