摘要：This exploratory research paper, based on a survey of aggregate data made available at different governmental ministries and agencies as well as the relevant literature, analyzes the investments in Children’s Education from 1996, from the setting up of Fundef, to its approval by the National Congress in April 2007. It sets out to help answer certain questions: What is the per capita cost of a child’s education in Brazil? What are the responsibilities of the federative constituents in the development and expansion of the modality? Is Fundeb going to be a significant ally or just a palliative in financing children’s education? Finally, it is considered necessary to transform children’s education into a permanent public policy and to respect the constitutional precepts for the allocation of funding.
