INSTITUTO AYRTON SENNA: LITERACY AND SCHOOL MANAGEMENT PROJECTS

ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION

NGO Name: Instituto Ayrton Senna

Location: Brazil

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:

1. 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.
2. 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."
