Abstract

BARTHOLO, Tiago Lisboa. Segregação escolar na cidade do Rio de Janeiro: análise da movimentação de estudantes. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2014, vol.25, n.58, pp.242-271. ISSN 0103-6831.

This article analyzes the phenomenon of relocating students among the public schools in the city of Rio de Janeiro, and the possible relationships with school segregation processes. An indicator - the Segregation Index - was used to measure school segregation in longitudinal designsof all transitions of elementary school. Data were supplied by the Secretary of Municipal Education, and include all students in the system between 2006 and 2011. Three characteristics of students were considered: color/race, education of the parents, and poverty level. Results suggest that the impact of student relocation between the basic and secondary levels is disruptive; that is, schools become more mixed in their social composition; the relocations at the secondary level present a definite pattern and suggest a constant process of student selection.

Keywords : School Segregation; Relocation of Students; Longitudinal Study; Indicators.
