All for Education is a civil society organization created with the mission of improving Brazil by boosting the quality and equity of public Basic Education (access, trajectory, learning). Brazil has made progress toward ensuring the right to education, however, the quality of its supply, the guarantee of learning, continues to be its greatest challenge. In recent years, Todos's efforts have been concentrated on advancing Education Now!, an agenda of effective solutions, anchored in evidence and successful experiences in Brazil and around the world, which seeks to respond to the challenges of education. To this end, it produces knowledge to support decision-making at different levels of public power, and promotes the mobilization and engagement of key players on the national scene. 

Main actions and impacts:

With the support of specialists and other civil society organizations, All For Education produced "Education Now 2022: contributions for the construction of a systemic agenda for Brazilian Basic Education".

Municipalities from all regions of Brazil have engaged with an agenda that prioritizes Public Basic Education.

NATIONAL EDUCATION SYSTEM APPROVED 

In March, the Senate approved the Complementary Law Project that institutes the National Education System (SNE), fruit of a long and deep debate over the last years among parliamentarians, educators, specialists, and civil society organizations. The SNE gives Brazil the tools to guarantee the right to quality public education for all. 

TECHNICAL NOTE IMPACT OF THE PANDEMIC ON CHILDREN'S LITERACY 

A technical note produced by Todos showed the size of the pandemic's impact on Brazilian public education. Produced based on the continuous Pnad from 2012 to 2021, the note recorded the 66.3% increase in the number of 6- and 7-year-old children who, according to their guardians, could not read and write. The number went from 1.4 million in 2019 to 2.4 million in 2021. The content was featured in the national and international press. 

TECHNICAL NOTE - ANALYSIS ABOUT THE PROJECT THAT CHANGES THE ICMS 

A technical note published on May 30 expressed concern about the approval by the House of Representatives of the Complementary Law Project no. 18/2022, which changes the collection of the Value-Added Tax on Sales and Services (ICMS) on fuel and electricity in all Brazilian states. The change, if implemented the way it was presented, would significantly reduce the investment in Education, precisely at the most challenging time for the recovery of children's learning rights. After much debate and political articulation by "Todos Pela Educação" (All for Education), an amendment was approved to reduce the damage to Education, making the recomposition of the Fundeb resources and reducing the drop in resources in the area due to the effects of the proposal. However, the president of the Republic vetoed this mechanism, causing Brazilian education to lose billions of reais. 

EDUCATION THAT WORKS INITIATIVE 

In June, Todos launched the second season of the audiovisual series Educação que Dá Certo (Education that works), an initiative that maps, analyzes, and shares evidence-based educational policies adopted by different education systems in the country with a focus on improving the quality of education.

EDUCATION CARAVANS NOW 

From April to September, Todos traveled all over Brazil to mobilize for the cause of quality Public Basic Education. The Education Now Caravans were especially important at this decisive moment for the country, in a process of listening, dialoguing and mobilizing pre-candidates, local leaders from various sectors, the school community and opinion makers. The objectives of this initiative were: 1. to give (greater) knowledge to the main candidates in the states about the technical document of Education Now, in order to make it a reference for the construction of the government's program and, especially, for the eventual administration; 2. to raise awareness in the local public debate about the Basic Education agenda, creating the basis for the mobilization to be sustained until the elections.

Although more than half of the public school principals are appointed by indication from the Secretary of Education, only 5% of them believe that this is the best way to choose.

With the conviction that education needs to guarantee full learning and full access to all children and young people - regardless of their socioeconomic situation, place of birth, gender, or whether or not they have a disability - the document seeks to support the construction of an educational agenda for state and federal governments with an inclusive perspective.

As part of this action, Todos also organized a round table discussion with ten young people from all over Brazil to discuss the themes of the survey. 

MAPPING EDUCATION IN THE STATES 

Understanding that gathering available data and analyzing it with criteria is fundamental for the formulation of more effective public policies, All elaborated the Panoramas of Basic Education for each of the Brazilian states.

This and other relevant data on teacher training can be found in the Overview of Graduates in Initial Teacher Training Courses, a study carried out by Todos based on the Higher Education Census. The survey also reveals that the percentage of graduates in distance education in teacher training has never grown as much as it did between 2019 and 2020.
