CASTANHO, Marisa Irene Siqueira; SILVA, Marjorie Cristina Rocha da; CASARIN, Sonia  and  DORIGHELLO, Letícia de Sousa. Conceptions and actions of female teachers related to full-time education proposals. Ensaio: aval. pol. públ. educ. [online]. 2018, vol.26, n.100, pp.780-800. ISSN 1809-4465.  https://doi.org/10.1590/S0104-40362018002601204.

The objective was to identify concepts and teachers’ actions related to a full-time education proposal. Responses of eleven female elementary school teachers of a municipal network were analyzed from a semi-structured interview script and demographic surveys. The content analysis with support of Iramuteq software showed: the socializing contribution of the full-time program to formal education; the difficulties of integration between teachers of both curricula; the attempts to engage parents and the lack of sense of community; the recognition of the importance of non-formal and playful activities; the student motivation and interest in recreational activities used as determinants for classroom frequency; the prevalence of a paternalistic vision. Research should be expanded and investment in teachers training should be enhanced, aiming at better understanding and performing articulated programs and planning of public policies.

Keywords : Extended school day; Teachers training; Elementary school; Public policies.
