A Literacy Brazil survey was released this Wednesday (31) by the Ministry of Education (MEC) and the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (Inep).
The survey was carried out in April and May of this year with professors and specialists. The objective was to identify the set of skills that define whether or not a child is literate.
In this sense, skills were presented that characterize the learning profile of reading and writing that is expected at the end of the second year of elementary school.
With this, the study contributes to the promotion of policies for assessing children's literacy in Brazil.
