The amount that the minister announced was R$ 250 million, which will go to schools in twenty-six states and also in the Federal District.
In addition, the transfer must go to schools of different types and to the most different groups, from kindergarten to high school and also technical education.
According to Santana, 1,236 schools will receive the money to complete works, both for the classroom and for similar areas, such as sports courts and even a swimming pool.
This would be a determination of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva himself, who intends to resume all the works that suffered interruptions in the last four years.
According to data from the Federal government, there are more than four thousand school works that had to stop due to lack of funds.
Including, some of them were paralyzed ten or even fifteen years ago, but now have the ability to start over and be completed. In general, there are more than 14,000 works interrupted in different segments of the Brazilian state.
FNDE Financing
To finalize all these works, the government intends to resort to the National Fund for the Development of Education, the FNDE. It is worth noting that the resumption of works was a campaign promise by Lula who, according to Minister Santana, will announce a major pact for the resumption of public works in the country.
In the case of education, there is indeed a great need to reactivate these works, since the demand has increased significantly.
According to data from the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (INEP), there was an increase in enrollment in basic education after the end of the pandemic. In addition to greater demand for comprehensive education.
