Even ignoring the legal determination, which provided for the matter to be sent to the National Congress by last June, the Ministry of Education (MEC) must forward the bill for the new National Education Plan (PNE) – relating to the 2024-2034 decade – only in the first half of next year (1S24).
Instead of recognizing the failure to comply with the legal procedure, the MEC argued that the 'delay' will serve to debate the new goals with society, especially at municipal conferences, next October, which precedes the national education conference.

Recognizing that the educational scenario is 'challenging', the department emphasizes that “in recent months it has been working on policies aimed at basic and higher education, in several axes”, with emphasis on the constitution of a working group, on a consultative and propositional basis, aiming to advance discussions regarding strategies and guidelines for the PNE.
In a note, the MEC reported that “at the moment, the members of the GT systematize the macro-problems identified for the establishment of new goals and strategies. The document produced by the GT will be discussed at municipal conferences, which begin in October, state conferences and at the national education conference, which take place in sequence, to support the preparation of the draft Bill, containing diagnosis, guidelines, objectives, goals and strategies for the National Education Plan of the next decade”.
With 20 goals for public managers, from early childhood education to higher education, the PNE contains 56 indicators that can be measured, without reference value, based on the debate and coordination between the MEC secretariats and entities such as the National Council of Education Secretaries (Consed), the National Union of Municipal Directors of Education (Undime), the National Education Forum (FNE), the National Education Council (CNE), the Forum of State Education Councils (Foncede), the Institute National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (Inep), the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (Capes), the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate.
In the case of basic education, the “Schools in Full Time” program should have an initial budget of R$4 billion, with a view to expanding the number of full-time enrollments in the respective education networks, with priority for financial aid being those departments with the lowest expansion.
