The session will provide a practical look at the work being carried out in the state of Pernambuco to restructure the School Administrators Training Program—Progepe—with a focus on spending efficiency. This pioneering initiative was developed through a partnership between the IDB and Singularidades.

The study revealed the transformative power of continuing education in school management by highlighting a crucial truth: resource management is not merely a supplementary element; it is the strategic differentiator for accelerated improvement in school performance and in Brazilian education.

The experience in Pernambuco demonstrates that, by equipping school leaders with a keen analytical eye, it is possible to support them in breaking down barriers and creating a transformative impact in schools. It is the ability to translate data and administrative principles into tangible improvements in the educational environment and learning outcomes.
