To verify the efficiency of Brazilian municipalities in the application of public resources disaggregated in the quality of public education, from 2009 to 2013, the Stochastic Frontier Analysis method was used, according to Battese and Coelli (1995). The results showed that social aspects (health and infrastructure expenditures) were not drivers of efficiency, despite the greater allocation of resources by the most efficient. Of the disaggregated public educational expenditures, the infrastructure, outsourced services by legal entities and other expenses were positive. In addition, the most efficient municipalities were those with the fewest students in the classroom and, especially, with 90% of the students enrolled in the age-consistent grade.
