Factores internos que influenciam no desempenho pedagógico dos alunos: caso da Escola Comunitária São Vicente de Paulo da Malhangalene - Cidade de Maputo 2019

Abstract

The teaching performance of students is influenced by various factors, especially internal ones. Despite having school infrastructure in good condition and investing in extra-curricular activities to complement students' learning, the São Vicente da Malhangalene Community School recorded low student performance in the 2019 school year. This study sought to understand the internal factors that influence the teaching performance of students at Malhangalene's São Vicente de Paulo Community School. To carry it out, a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches was adopted, using semi-structured interviews and questionnaires as data collection techniques. The sample consisted of 17 people, 15 of whom were teachers, one member of management and one representative of the non-teaching staff. Convenience sampling was used to select the sample. The results of the study indicated poor teaching performance, a lack of teaching aids and poor relationships between teachers and pupils and other school staff. Poor performance was also associated with a lack of concentration, discomfort and demotivation on the part of the students, which is why we suggest: Attendance and punctuality on the part of the students; greater interaction between students; monitoring students with poor performance; making more teaching resources available to teachers; equipping the Library, Computer Room and Laboratory and more interaction between teachers and parents and/or carers.
