Paulo Freire, the brazilian thinker who built an emancipatory education project against oppression and in favor of freedom, has been justly honored in this centenary of his birth with many reflections on his work and the numerous contributions that he left to education, not only in Brazil but all over the world. This essay aims to address these contributions, especially to innovative public policies that were implemented during his experience as Secretary of Education in the city of São Paulo. From a bibliographical and documentary review, it was possible to establish a dialogue with their educational policies and understand their fundamental principles for constructing a truly democratic school, namely: participation, decentralization and autonomy. Whether for pedagogical action in the classroom or for educational management, Freire included these principles in his practices and left an essential legacy for today's educators committed to social justice.

Palabras clave : Paulo Freire; democratic education; educational policies.
