Basic Education Public Policies in "post-socialist" Mozambique - Massification of Education and Implications for School Management

Our study is interested in understanding the influence of Multilateral Organisations (MA) guidelines on the formulation of educational policies and their impact on school management in Mozambique. Based on the structuring of a global agenda for education (DALE, 2004), the MOs have endeavoured to articulate broad recommendations that can be applied to the most diverse realities. Like other peripheral countries, Mozambique has made education a fundamental part of the country's economic development. In recent years, the process of transforming complete primary schools (EPCs) into cycle 1 secondary schools (ESG1) has been a reference in this endeavour. EPCs are schools whose teachers must have grade 10 qualifications (grade) + 1 year of teaching to teach from grade 1 to grade 7, while the 1st cycle secondary schools (ESG1), from grade 8 to grade 10, have the following requirements: teachers with grade 12 level + 1 year of teaching or higher education in teaching areas; existence of libraries and practice areas for Physical Education (MEC, 2013).
