Educadoras baianas orientam candidatos sobre repertórios socioculturais para a proposta de redação em 2026

Overview

  • Education Minister Leonardo Barchini and INEP publicly guaranteed on Wednesday that Enem 2026 will be applied with tightened confidentiality and new pre‑testing protocols after the 2025 questions controversy.
  • INEP changed how it conducts pre‑tests required by the test's item response method (TRI) to measure question difficulty and the Polícia Federal was engaged to investigate last year’s circulation of similar items.
  • More than 5.05 million candidates are confirmed for the two exam Sundays, scheduled for November 8 and 15, with gates opening at 12:00 and closing at 13:00 Brasília time and tests starting at 13:30.
  • The redação topic is produced by a secure INEP commission, the essay’s structure and scoring criteria remain unchanged for 2026, and any structural reforms would be considered for implementation beginning in 2028.
  • States and schools are running large last‑week review events and providing logistics such as free transport in Piauí and aulões in Amapá and Bahia to help students manage anxiety and reach test sites.
