Education in Brazil
An International Perspective
The Education in Brazil: An International Perspective report was developed drawing
on internationally comparative data on education in Brazil, in particular the extensive
range of data collected by the OECD through its surveys. The experiences of other
countries and how they have tackled challenges similar to those now faced by Brazil,
along with the insights from consultations with key national experts, also inform
the analysis. The report benchmarks with OECD and a set of comparator emerging economies
the whole education system from early childhood education and care to tertiary education,
focusing on:
Access and participation
Learning and labour market outcomes
The allocation, use and efficiency of financial, human and material resources
School leaders, teachers and teaching
The school climate and student well-being
The report highlights the many strengths of Brazil’s education system, identifies
the main challenges ahead and offers policy implications for the future.
