Aprovado plano de trabalho da MP que reajusta piso da educação básica

Overview

  • The mixed commission, installed Tuesday, chose Deputy Idilvan Alencar as president and Senator Professora Dorinha Seabra as rapporteur.
  • The panel approved its work plan and set public hearings with the Education Ministry and education groups to finish a report in mid‑May for swift floor votes.
  • The measure lifts the national floor for basic‑education teachers by 5.4% to R$5,130.63 for a 40‑hour week in 2026.
  • The MP replaces the old index with a rule that guarantees at least INPC inflation and adds half of the five‑year average real growth of Fundeb revenues, the main school‑funding pool.
  • The government estimates a R$6.4 billion impact in 2026 and argues rising Fundeb income can absorb it, noting the old formula would have yielded only a 0.37% raise.
