O high school in the state of São Paulo will be restructured for the 2024 school year. The definition was announced by the Secretary of Education.
Currently, the curriculum for this teaching stage has 12 training itineraries.
With the change, there will be three options for training itineraries:
Languages and their Technologies + Human and Social Sciences;
Natural Sciences + Mathematics;
Vocational Education.
Students will choose which training itinerary they will follow. The choice is made in the 1st grade and they will study the itinerary throughout the 2nd and 3rd grades.
Another novelty is the insertion of new disciplines from the 1st series:
Financial education;
Life Project;
Writing and Reading;
Acceleration for Vestibular.
The traditional subjects such as Mathematics and Portuguese that make up Basic General Training will be maintained in all grades.
Classes in the state returned last Tuesday (25).
They are 3.5 million students enrolled in the state public school system in São Paulo, made up of 5,300 schools.
Do not stop now... There's more after the publicity ;)
New High School
The New High School was passed into law in 2017, but began to be implemented in 2022.
Among the changes promoted with the New High School are:
Increased workload;
New curriculum grid;
Teaching aimed at professional training;
Creation of training itineraries for students to deepen in areas of knowledge that are more familiar.
This year, the Ministry of Education (MEC) decided to suspend the implementation of the New Secondary School. Camilo Santana, Minister of Education, stated that there was no broad dialogue with public managers on the reformulation of the Brazilian secondary education policy.
In view of this, the folder opened a public consultation to hear the school community and society as a whole regarding secondary education.
A public consultation was held in June and July of this year. More than 100,000 people participated in this process through the Participa+ Brasil platform.
