EDUCATIONAL GOALS AND FINANCING: REFLECTIONS ON HIGH SCHOOL IN RONDÔNIA

Abstract

This article analyzes the feasibility and compatibility of the educational goals for secondary education provided for in the State Education Plan of Rondônia (PEE/RO) with the reality of the state, based on the results of 2023. The research examines data and public documents for monitoring educational plans and budget execution of the state government. The results indicate that goals 3, 8 and 20 of the PEE/RO were not achieved in 2023, evidencing challenges in the universalization of secondary education, in increasing enrollments and improving educational quality, in addition to the increase in public resources for education. The analysis highlights the lack of clear guidelines for the application of resources, the mismatch between funding and education supply, and social inequalities. The study concluded that public education policies need to be reviewed and adapted to regional realities to be effective. It is proposed to carry out future studies that investigate educational financing policies, make comparisons between Brazilian states, and assess the specific needs of schools and communities in Rondônia.
