CARVALHO, Marília Pinto de. Elementary teachers and the payment of bonus per results: case study on public schools of São Paulo. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.72, pp.187-207. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.59799.

This article focus on the relation between elementary school teachers and the payment of bonus for the achievement of goals. The question is whether the entrepreneurial forms of work management introduced in public education have altered the models of teaching at elementary level, which have been historically associated with motherhood and femininity. For this, a qualitative study was conducted based on observations and semi-structured interviews with teachers from public schools of São Paulo. The conclusion is that there is a superposition of teaching work models, combining dimensions associated with femininity, such as dedication, guilt and love for teaching, with the logic of business management, which emphasizes financial reward, individualism and competition.
