Publicações do Grupo de Estudos e Pesquisas em Política Educacional – GREPPE, indicam que tal modalidade de privatização da educação infantil apresenta ressalvas quanto as condições de atendimento e ao panorama legal brasileiro. Sabendo que existe na sociedade brasileira instrumentos de controle social como os Conselhos Municipais ligados a educação que têm o poder de acompanhamento, proposição e atuação frente a administração pública e figura como o Ministério Público que é um órgão autônomo, independente e defensor da ordem jurídica e de direitos difusos e coletivos, este estudo tem a intenção de compreender e analisar de que forma o Ministério Público, os Conselhos de Acompanhamento e Controle Social do FUNDEB e os Conselhos Municipais de Educação vêm atuando em relação aos Programas Bolsa Creche, Programa Municipal de Educação Básica (PROEB) e Pró-Creche e suas diferentes problemáticas nos cinco municípios do interior do estado de São Paulo indicados em pesquisa anterior. Para isso, utiliza-se a abordagem qualitativa e instrumentos de coleta de dados como entrevista, pesquisa documental e levantamento bibliográfico. Os resultados do estudo demonstram que os Conselhos Municipais de Educação e os Conselhos de Acompanhamento e Controle Social do FUNDEB estão distantes das discussões envolvendo os programas de privatização da educação infantil municipal, sendo que somente uma gestão de um conselho posicionou-se e realizou ações em relação ao Programa municipal. Já no âmbito do Ministério Público vê-se que questões envolvendo os programas de subvenção as instituições privadas de educação infantil foram alvo de inquéritos civis e um Termo de Ajustamento de Conduta que tinha como objetivo a adequação dos serviços prestados pelas instituições contratadas e a absorção de tais matrículas pela rede municipal. / Privatization programs to offer children's education from public grants to private profit institutions were identified in five municipalities in Sao Paulo state until 2009 - Araras, Limeira, Sumare, Hortolandia and Piracicaba - by the research "Municipal strategies for the provision of early childhood education: an analysis of public-private partnerships in the State of Sao Paulo"(ADRIÃO et al., 2009). Publications of the Group of Studies for Research in Educational Policy - GREPPE, indicates that such modality of program compliance to children's education presents caveats regarding the offering conditions and the Brazilian legal perspective. Knowing that in Brazilian society exists instruments for social control such as Municipal Councils related to education which have the ability to follow up, propose and act towards the public administration and figures as the Public Prosecutor's Office, which is an autonomous, independent and legal defender of diffuse and collective rights, this study aims to identify and analyze the standings and performance of such institutions in the five municipalities that develop these programs. For this purpose, qualitative approach and data collection instruments such as personal interview, documentary research and bibliographic survey were used. From the survey and analysis of the data collected, it is noticed that the Municipal Councils of Education and the FUNDEB Monitoring and Social Control Councils are distant from the discussions involving the privatization programs of municipal early childhood education, being that only a single council administration took action regarding the municipal program. In the scope of the Public Prosecutor's Office, it is noticed that issues involving the granting programs of private childcare institutions were the subject of four civil investigations and a Conduct’s Term of Adjustment which had the objective of ensure the compliance of the services provided by the contracted institutions and the acceptance of such enrollments by the municipal network.

A investigação pretende entender como a UNICAMP atende a demanda das instituições externas que firmam parcerias em busca de serviços, cursos, pesquisas etc. O objetivo específico desta dissertação é levantar dados e subsídios que responda a pergunta: em que medida os contratos com intervenção da FUNCAMP levam ao "capitalismo acadêmico"? De que modo as ações praticadas avançam ou recuam no sentido de uma privatização ou de uma publicização da universidade? A amostra desse estudo se restringe aos contratos vigentes no ano de 2.005 e de 2.008, referente a seis faculdades e/ou institutos, divididos em duas diferentes áreas: humanas e engenharias. Foi possível constatar diferentes formas de abordagem nestas duas áreas, no que diz respeito aos motivos dos contratos, além de diferentes tipos das instituições e diferentes naturezas das mesmas, entre outros. / Abstract: This paper aims to explore new ways of acting in society towards the university, specifically under the interventions of the Fundação de Desenvolvimento da Unicamp, FUNCAMP, established by UNICAMP; it is a private non-profits entity of which purpose is to serve the demands of research, education and extension through financial resource management agreements and contracts signed by UNICAMP with several institutions. The research intends to understand how the UNICAMP serves the demand of external institutions that have signed partnerships in search of services, courses, research etc. The specific objective of this dissertation is to collect data and information that answer the question: How do the contracts with the intervention of FUNCAMP lead to "academic capitalism"? How do the actions go forward or move back to privatize the university or make it public? The sample of this study is about the established contracts between 2005 and 2008, relating to six colleges and / or institutes that were divided into two different areas: humanities and engineering. It was possible to verify different ways to approach, related to the reasons of the contracts and different types and nature of institutions, among others things. / Mestrado / Ciencias Sociais na Educação / Mestre em Educação

Thesis (PhD)--University of Stellenbosch, 2000. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The South African system of education is in a transitional stage from a fragmented educational system with various departments to a more encompassing unitary one. The finances of the various departments were centrally controlled and managed. The objective of the new system of education is to be transparent, free, equal and democratic with only one umbrella department. Great expectations were raised among the South African public with regards to this new system. Nowadays many more learners are involved at schools without the provision of more monetary resources. In order to meet the public's expectations and live up to acceptable standards, alternative initiatives to generate funds must be investigated. During the first phase of this investigation research of the educational systems of relevant countries was undertaken. It was established that these countries implement various forms of privatisation to enable their educational systems to function at a high level. In all these countries adjustments were made to adapt to the local circumstances. In South Africa a new education legislation might be the impetus for further privatisation. Information about the implementation of privatisation in South African context was obtained by semi-structured interviews with numerous principals in the Cape Metropole. Additional data concerning the schools was obtained by means of a questionnaire. The qualitative research method was mainly used for the collection and interpretation of data. It became evident that total privatisation would not be the solution for the unique problems of the South African educational system. The system would be too expensive and not within financial reach of the average person. Privatisation in public schools with regards to all facets will be difficult to implement. It is, however, possible to privatise certain school structures and according to the interviews, this has already been initiated in numerous schools. To enable privatisation to function successfully, efficient expertise is essential. It is paramount that there should be meganisms of efficient control and management. The role of the principal has become vitally important with a shift of emphasis from educationalist to manager. The supportive role of the governing body of a school in the decision-making process and the management of the school has been increased by the education legislation. Based on international tendencies it seems that healthy business principles are the foundation of privatisation of selective school structures. Most of the interest groups are satisfied with the fact that they have more say and a greater involvement in the total educational system. The objective that will be achieved is a legitimate system that maintains high standards, is more affordable than the current system and learners who are equipped to fulfill their role as mature citizens. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die Suid-Afrikaanse onderwysstesel is in 'n oorgangstadium vanaf 'n gefragmenteerde stesel met verskillende departemente tot 'n meer omvattende, eenvormige stesel. Voorheen was die finansies sentraal beheer en bestuur. Die nuwe onderwysstelsel se doelwit is egter om 'n deursigtige, vrye en gelyke demokratiese stelsel daar te stel met slegs een oorkoepelende departement. By die Suid-Afrikaanse publiek is baie verwagtinge geskep rakende die nuwe stelsel. Baie meer leerders word deesdae· betrek by skole sonder dat meer finansiële hulpmiddels beskikbaar is. Om aan die verwagtinge van die publiek te voldoen en om standaarde te handhaaf moet alternatiewe inisiatiewe vir geldgenerering nou gevind word. Tydens die eerste fase van dié ondersoek is navorsing van relevante lande se onderwysstelsels onderneem. Daar is vasgestel dat hierdie lande vorme van privatisering toepas om hul onderwysstesels op 'n hoë vlak te laat funksioneer. By al die lande is aanpassings gedoen om privatisering by die plaaslike omstandighede te laat inskakel. Inligting oor die toepassing van privatisering in die Suid-Afrikaanse konteks is bekom deur semi-gestruktureerde onderhoude te voer met 'n aantal skoolhoofde van die Wes-Kaap. Addisionele data aangaande die skole is verkry deur die voltooiing van 'n vraelys. Die kwalitatiewe navorsingsmetode is hoofsaaklik gevolg by die insameling van data en die interpretasie daarvan. Dit was duidelik dat algehele privatisering nie 'n oplossing sal wees by die unieke probleme van die Suid-Afrikaanse onderwysstelsel nie. Dit sal die stelsel te duur maak en buite bereik van die gemiddelde persoon plaas. Privatisering van staatskole ten opsigte van alle funksis sal inderwaarheid moeilik bereik kan word. Privatisering van sommige skoolstrukture kan egter wel plaasvind, en is reeds geïmplementeer in talle skole, soos vasgestel uit die onderhoude. Om privatisering goed te laat funksioneer, is voldoende kundigheid sowel as meganismesvan kontrole en beheer onontbeerlik. Die prinsipaal se rol het baie belangrik geword, met 'n klemverskuiwing vanaf opvoedkundige na bestuurder. Die beheerliggame van skole se ondersteunende rol en die hulp wat hulle verleen by die bestuur- en besluitnemingsprosesseword ingevolge onderwyswetgewing aansienlik groter. Gegrond op internasionale tendense blyk dit dat gesonde sakebeginsels die onderbou van privatisering van sommige skoolstrukture is. Die meeste belangegroepe is tevrede met hul groter inspraak en betrokkenheid by die opvoedingstelsel in die geheel. Die doelwit wat bereik gaan word, is 'n stelsel wat legitimiteit het, goeie standaarde handhaaf, finansieel meer bekostigbaar is as die huidige stelsel, en leerders wat opgewasse is om hul rol as volwaardige landsburgers te vervul.

Thesis (MPA)--Stellenbosch University, 2003. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Public institutions require financial resources in order to deliver quality services to the community. The survival of each and every organisation primarily relies on the availability and proper management of financial resources in order to provide effective and efficient service to its clients. Section 195 (1) (b) of the Republic of South Africa Constitution Act, 1996 , Act 108 of 1996 compels public institutions to promote and implement mechanisms that will promote efficient , economic and effective use of resources. South African Public Universities derives larger part of their revenue from the government. The South African government finances South African Universities on the basis of student enrolments. Funding for South African universities and technikons has increased from 10% in the 1996/1997 financialyear to 14% in the 2000/2001 budget. Despite the increase in the financing of the education sector, there were also significant changes in student enrolments at South African universities (Kulati, 2000: 27). Students are leaving from historically black universities for historically white ones and many more are enrolling at technikons than at universities. There are a number of reasons attributed to the decrease in student enrolment in former black universities. Black universities are perceived to be of inferior status as compared to former white universities in terms of their quality and resources. It is expected that government subsidies to historically black universities might fall by 26% over the next three years because of the projected decline in student enrolments. Taking into consideration the enrolment linked subsidy, changed enrolment patterns have drastically affected subsidy allocations by the government to most historically black universities such as Vista University. According to Caruna et al.,(1998: 55), tertiary educational institutions are required, like business firms, to monitor and adapt to the continuous changed taking place in the political, economic, social and the technological environment. The affected institutions are compelled to adapt their service delivery mechanisms if they are to remain financially viable in the near future. It is for this reason that the researcher will explore the use of privatisation as an alternative strategy to service delivery. This study investigate the manner in which activities of the technical services department within Vista University Welkom Campus can be contracted out with an aim of improving cost efficiency within the University. The study developed a normative model which can be used as a guideline in the process of contracting out services and also explain how such model can applied in the process of contracting out activities of the technical services department. The study further identified the responsibilities of different role players who will in one way or another be affected by the contracting process within the University. The study concluded that for the contracting out process to be cost effective, the University have to adopt a seasonally priced contract which reduces activities of the service producer in winter and concentrate activities of the service producer in summer. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Openbare instellings benodig finasiele hulpbronne om 'n gehalte diens aan die gemeenskap te lewer. Die voortbestaan van elke organisasie berus primer op die beskikbaarheid en behoorlike bestuur van finansiele hulpbronne om 'n effektiewe en doeltreffende diens aan kliente te lewer. Afdeling 195 (1) (b) van die Grondwet van die Republiek van Suid Afrika, 1996, Wet 108 van 1996, verplig publieke instellings om meganismes te implimenteer en bevorder wat doeltreffende, ekonomiese en effektiewe gebruik van hulpbronne verseker. Suid Afrikaanse openbare universiteite verkry die grootste gedeelte van hulle inkomste vanaf die regering. Hierdie finansiering geskied volgens die aantal geregistreerde studente by die onderskeie universiteite. Bevondsing vir Suid Afrikaanse universiteite en technikons het gestyg van 10% in die 1996/1997 finansiele jaar tot 14% in die 2000/2001 begroting. Ten spyte van die finansiering van die opvoedkundige sektor, was daar beduidende veranderinge in die studente getalle by Suid Afrikaanse universiteite (Financial Mail, 3l.03.2000). Studente verlaat historiese swart universiteite om by histories blanke universiteite in te skryf en meer studente skryf by technikons in as by universiteite. Daar is 'n aantal redes waaraan die afname van registrasies by histories swart universiteite toegeskryf kan word. Voormalige swart universiteite word as minderwaardig betreffende gehalte en hulpbronne beskou, in vergelyking met voormalige blanke universiteite. Die verwagting is dat staat subsidies aan historiese swart universiteite met so veel as 26% oor die volgende drie jaar kan daal, as gevolg van die geprojekteerde daling in studente getalle. Gegewe die feit dat subsidie gekoppel is aan studente registrasies, het die verandering in studente registrasie patrone 'n drastiese invloed op die subsidie toewysing op meeste historiese swart universiteite, waaronder Vista Universiteit resorteer. Volgens Caruna et al.,(1998:55), word daar van tersiere instellings (net soos van besigheidsfirmas), verwag om by die veranderende politieke, eknomiese, sosiale en tegnologiese omgewings aan te pas. Die instellings wat geraak word, gedwing om hul diensleweringsmeganisme aan te pas om finansieel lewensvatbaar te bly. Om hierdie rede gaan die navorser privatisering as alternatiewe strategie tot dienslewering ondersoek. Hierdie studie ondersoek maniere om aktiwiteite van die Tegniese Dienste Departement uit te kontrakteur met die uitsluitlike doel om koste effektiwiteit binne die Vista Universiteit te bewerkstelling. Die studie poog ook om 'n normatiewe model te formuleer en te implementeer om bogenoemde aktiwiteite te rugsteun. Die studie verduidelik ook hoe so 'n model die uitkontrakteur van Tegniese Dienste lewering kan assisteer en komplimenteer. Die studie identifiseer ook verskeie rolspelers wat deel sal vorm van die voorgestelde proses en wat ook direk en indirek deur die proses geraak en geaffekteer sal word. Die studie kom tot die slotsom dat die proses van uitkontraktering van Tegniese Dienste, kostebesparings binne die universiteit sal bewerkstellig. Die universiteit moet 'n stelsel implementeer wat seisoensgebonde is asook prysgebonde strukture daar stel wat die aspek van koste effektiwiteit sal aanspreek.
