The end of the dissemination of Enem results per school, a brief reflection on the evaluation of public policies and access to information

Abstract

This study aims to create a favorable scenario for the discussion about the decision of the Ministry of Education (MEC) to stop disseminating the results of the National High School Examination (Enem) per school. At first, the issue was contextualized and problematized under legal and public administration aspects. Then, statistics were compiled from the organization of data obtained in the “per-school” spreadsheets of previous years, to demonstrate the contribution of this information to the evaluation of the new public policies focused on education. The conclusion presents the main results of the quantitative data analysis, and from there the main aspects of the theoretical discussion are revisited.
