INSTITUTO AYRTON SENNA: LITERACY AND SCHOOL MANAGEMENT PROJECTS
ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION
NGO Name: Instituto Ayrton Senna
Pillar: Fight Against School Dropout
Location: Brazil
Funding Period: 2019-2021
THE CHALLENGE
Since 2019, Instituto Ayrton Senna has worked to ensure that no student is left behind in education, discovering new methods for including and supporting new partners in its mission.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
The BIC Corporate Foundation supports two projects with Instituto Ayrton Senna:
- The “Literacy Management“ project, which works to achieve 100% literacy (writing, reading, math) within the first three years of school (Goal 5 of Brazil's National Education Plan). It supports the Education Secretariat on the development of effective public policies, which are then deployed through teachers’ and educational managers' training.
- The “Grade 10 Management” program, which aims to elevate the quality of education through principals’ and teachers’ training to promote effective administrative, management and pedagogical processes in public education networks.
IN THEIR OWN WORDS
When first receiving the new proposal from Instituto Ayrton Senna, I confess I was a little worried about having more bureaucratic parts like spreadsheets and stuff. Today, though, I'm already seeing results."
