A priorização da educação na primeira infância como forma de se efetivar o direito à educação e, assim, implementar a cidadania, o máximo existencial e uma sociedade (verdadeiramente) livre, justa e solidária

Abstract

The present paper aims to study and evaluate the constitutional evolution and obedience of the public policy that involves education in Brazil, emphasizing the special care that must be taken with children's pre-primary education. It will analyze the capacity of today's educational system to effectively prepare people for the exercise of citizenship, giving equal opportunities and allowing them to leave schools really prepared to become the best version of themselves and, thus, contribute to the development of society. The numbers that involve the theme will be analyzed, such as values destined to education and at what levels, situation of teachers and students, with the purpose of making clear the framework under analysis in this dissertation. The repercussion and influence that this educational gap providesis also analyzed, notably with regard to the increase in crime, the lack of autonomy that makes children and adolescents easy prey for algorithms and the productivity of the NEET generation (not in education, employment, or training). Based, among others, on exponents of literature such as Pontes de Miranda, Paulo Freire, Edgar Morin, Nina Ranieri, Anísio Teixeira and James Joseph Heckman, it exposes, in a grounded way, the combination of theoretical studies and data that can confirm (or remove) this hypothesis of relationship and interdependence and the need to give prestige to early childhood education, commonly neglected in obtaining from other educational levels. It is also intended to propose ideas to improve this situation, so important for the development of a nation. In this scope, before seeing education as a solution to problems, it is necessary to think of a solution to the problem we have in education. It is a complex subject whose analysis is interdisciplinary, considering historical, cultural, social and encouraging issues. In this way, believes that in order to achieve a real change in education, efforts should be focused on early childhood education, as it would bring a fairer picture of opportunities to all citizens and, consequently, benefits for all the society.
