The possibility of democratic schooling and education is taken as a pending issue in the Mozambican context and a current challenge is important to the extent that democracy capitalizes on democratic experiences in the educational process and, consequently, the school becomes a real vector of democracy. Given that the consolidation of democracy and democratic citizenship inevitably passes through democratic education-training, the great challenge for the Mozambican state is to take as a priority and urgency the need to invest in school as an agency for democratic training, that is, to take it as a factor generating democratic competencies and skills, such as dialogue, freedom of expression, participation, tolerance, solidarity, cooperation, respect for differences, etc. Likewise, it is indispensable to link didactic and pedagogical practice to the implementation of channels of democratization of intra and extra-school relations.
