Abstract

All-day schooling is an educational policy implemented since 2015 for the secondary level of the Basic Regular Education. It increases from 35 to 45 the weekly teaching hours in courses such as Communication, Education for Work, English and Mathematics. Its main goals are to improve the quality of secondary education and to promote the closing of wealth gap in Peru. Considering that all kinds of human development projects should include social actors’ expectations and notions of the future (Appadurai, 2004), this study accounts for the tension between the pedagogical component of all-day schooling and the professional aspirations of a group of adolescents enrolled in the last year at school.
