Política de brinquedotecas escolares: uma análise da implementação no município de Maracanaú-Ce

Abstract

The toy library is a space in which recreational and educational activities are developed that provide children with access to play. This access encourages various socio-emotional skills that impact child development. As a result, this study aims to analyze the implementation process of the School Toy Library Policy in the municipality of Maracanaú. Thus, we sought to analyze the relationship of school toy library policy based on the context of Brazilian education, in addition to dealing with public policies and their focus on implementation and, finally, understanding, through the sector responsible for the policy, the process of implementing the toy libraries in the municipality of Maracanaú. This work has a qualitative and exploratory approach. A literature review and document analysis were carried out, in addition to the semistructured interview method, which enabled the use of data triangulation. As a result, the research evidenced the importance of the continuity of this policy for the city, in view of its convergence with Brazilian laws and guidelines, however, there are still ways to go for an effective implementation in relation to the actors and schools covered. It is also worth emphasizing the need for greater documentation regarding results and quantitative monitoring for internal control so that there is a more in-depth assessment of the area in future research.
