QUALITY IN EDUCATION: WHAT'S THE SUITABLE FUNDING TO THE BASIC EDUCATION?

Abstract

In this paper we will discuss the basis of Brazilian educational funding regarding basic education. The FUNDEB, which ends in 2020, enabled the decentralization of basic education by transferring funds according to the number of student's registrations per school network. This model considers the budget capacity of the Federal Government and other federal entities, not an initial floor that allows school units to meet their operating expenses. At this moment, we discuss the design of a new standard, based on a minimum value per student.
