Abstract

The present paper tires to identify the factors that influences in teachers rotatctivity among scholls in the basic Brasil\'s schooling system. To that we estimated econometric models to verify the probability of a class to have more than one teacher durying the same period of one school year. Using the microdatabase of SAEB for the year of 2003, by the National institute of studies and educational research Anísio Teixeira, of Ministry of Education (INEP/MEC). We found that teachers of mathematics and Portuguese speaking of different sets respond differently to the variables analyzed. For example, an increase in the proportion of white students by 10 percentage points is associated with a decrease of 1 percentage point in the rotation, where teachers 4th grade of elementary school Portuguese language and mathematics. In turn, teachers of 4th grade of elementary schools of both disciplines and the 8 th grade of elementary schools that teach the Portuguese language, working in private schools reduces the likelihood of turnover by 5 percentage points. Finally, the occurrence of attacks on school teacher turnover increases of 4 th grade of elementary Portuguese Language and the presence of guns increases in teachers turnover in the 4th grade of elementary schools of the two disciplines. For the 3rd year of high school, participation in the teacher education program reduces turnover. (AU)
