Base Nacional Comum Curricular da Educação Básica: reflexões sobre o processo de construção

Abstract

The new Brazilian curricular standards for basic education is known as the Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC). Homologated on December 20, 2017, the BNCC was constructed through the participation and mobilization of teachers, researchers, specialists and technicians. However, to verify if the BNCC construction process offered true participatory opportunities to educators, it is necessary to study the actors involved and the level of their participation. This article aims to answer its guiding question, through the analysis of publications and personal reports of the trajectory of this construction, to the understanding of issues that involve the BNCC. On methodological aspects, the case study was used because the theme is recent, and it was possible to observe, although there has been an attempt to enable teachers’ participation, that was incipient, requiring new researches to verify if broader and more democratic forms could have been used, as well as on the implication of this construction process for the effective implantation by the adhesion of affected agents.
