The leaders of 31 primary schools of the municipal network took part in the 2nd Training Meeting on the preparation of the Political Education Project (PPP) for implementation in school divisions from the second semester of 2022.

The PPP is being prepared by the Department of Education (Semed) through the Directorate of Teaching/Department of Primary Education, and the latest event with Principals, Alternate Principals and Educational Coordinators hosted last week by Advisor Andrea Richitelli.

The political-pedagogical project is a theoretical and methodological tool for intervening and changing reality in search of the quality of education, success and permanence of students in school. This is a tool for the formation of citizens,” said Luciana Kruvinel, director of education at Semed.

According to Mara Jennari, Head of the Department of Primary Education, the project itself is a process of building and organizing the pedagogical work of the school as a whole on the principles of democratic governance, quality and equality.

At this last meeting, the management teams of the schools were focused on how to write the PPP Situational Concept Paper.

Actions around the Political Education Project have also advanced to the formation of commissions made up of representatives of teachers, administrative staff and families who will be involved in the process of developing the teaching staff of each educational unit.

After five years of trying to freeze the valuables or assets of former MP Meraldo de Sa – finding nothing – the Public Ministry of State (MPE) asked the court to apply “atypical measures” such as arresting CNH to make him pay a fine of more than 100,000 reais for the conviction he received for administrative offences.

The former MP was convicted in 2014 for employing his mother, brother and wife in the municipality of Acorizal (63 km north of Cuiaba) in 2005, when he was mayor.

He was fined 10 times the salary he received as mayor.

The punishment has already become final (when there is nowhere to appeal).

According to MPE, the process has been in the execution phase for more than five years.

The search for goods and attempts to invest were made according to the order and according to the available systems, but all remained inconclusive.

For this reason, the public ministry demanded the adoption of atypical executive measures, which consisted in the seizure of the former deputy of the Council of National Economy and the passport.

However, Judge Celia Vidotti of the Specialized Court of Class Actions said enforcement action is subject to a decision by the High Court of Justice (HJC).

It therefore decided to stay the proceedings against Meraldo Sá pending a later decision by the STJ.

During the trial, the Public Ministry of State (MPE) reported that Meraldo Sá, as mayor of Acorisal, agreed to the appointment of Carmelina Carmen de Sá (his mother), Maldo Figueiredo Sá (his brother) and Daisy Fatima Ferreira da Silva (his wife) , “in their respective functions of Social Support Coordinator, Cabinet Coordinator, and Support and Social Assistance Secretary.”

MPE stated that because the Federal Supreme Court (STF) expressly prohibits the practice of nepotism, it issued a notice to Meraldo in 2008 demanding that all relatives be exonerated and that no new contracts of this type be entered into.

But the then mayor did not prove that he did the rehabilitation, and the MNO notified him twice more, with no answer, and in 2010 the mayor’s relatives were still in office.

Meraldo, on the other hand, argued that his wife’s appointment to the Department of Promotion and Social Assistance did not fall under nepotism. He also stated that he exonerated his brother in 2007 and his mother in 2009.

The judge agreed that the appointment of Meraldo’s wife was not nepotism, since her position was political, not administrative.

However, this does not apply to the appointment of mother and brother, since both held administrative positions.
