FULL-TIME AND COMPREHENSIVE EDUCATION

Abstract

This article has as its theme the policies of full-time education, discussing the concepts of comprehensive education and full time education, explaining the differences between them. It seeks to analyze the processes of implementing a full-time policy in brazilian education, highlighting the importance of this process being guided by principles that privilege integral human training and the fight against social inequalities. The main reference for such analysis is the work of the Brazilian educator Paulo Freire, in addition to official documents and the legislation relevant to the issue. For an empirical analysis of the context in which this debate takes place in the country, the paths and deviations of the More Education and New More Education Program are taken as a reference, in addition to the emergence of movements such as School without Party. The analysis that is done corroborates the statement regarding the need for a comprehensive education, which considers human beings in their integrality and integrity.
