Panorama das políticas públicas para o atendimento pedagógico domiciliar no Brasil

Abstract

ABSTRACT The main objective of this text is to outline an overview of public policies present in the legislation of the Brazilian states regarding Homebound Pedagogical Care. From the methodological point of view, the work is based on the qualitative research approach. To this end, we carried out an exploratory study, in the form of documentary research, using information available on the websites of the Education Departments of the Brazilian states, the State Education Councils and the Legislative Chambers. Electronic research was used in data collection, and the technique for analyzing the data was document analysis. As results, we found the normative documents related to APD: absence of normative documents referring to APD in Alagoas, Amazonas, Rondônia, Distrito Federal, Mato Grosso, Paraíba and Amapá; resolutions of the State Council of Education in the states of Maranhão, Ceará, Piauí, Sergipe, Rio Grande do Sul, Goiás, Pará, Acre, Minas Gerais, Tocantins and Roraima; resolutions of the Secretaries of Education in Paraná and São Paulo; Decree of the Governor in Pernambuco; Ordinance of the Secretary of Education in Bahia; mention in the Law referring to Special Education in Santa Catarina; laws referring to the provision of APD only in the states of Rio de Janeiro and Rio Grande do Norte. We conclude that there is an urgent need for a public educational policy in the context of APD, in all governmental levels, organized and systematized in State actions in a permanent way and not just a governmental plan.
