ABSTRACT:
This paper aims at analysing the design of a new regulation for the elementary school, on the basis of the relationship between the pair centralized curriculum and unified testing. It is structured in four sections. The first one introduces the theme by means of dialogue with authors of different theoretical affiliations. The second discusses the configuration of current policies, as well as the conditions of possibility to expropriate the teaching work. The third proposes the notion of technological substitution as a link between competencies and assessment, focusing on the case of the Municipal Secretariat of Education of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Finally, the fourth section undertakes a critical analysis of teachers' discourses, so as to grasp the senses in hegemonic struggle.
