SILVA, Francisco José da  and  SILVA, Edileuza Fernandes. The Relationship Between Financial Decentralization through PDAF and Educational Achievement Performance. Educ. Real. [online]. 2023, vol.48, e122092. ISSN 2175-6236.  https://doi.org/10.1590/2175-6236122092vs01.

The essay discusses the Federal District Administrative and Financial Decentralization Program (PDAF), educational achievement, and age-grade distortion in elementary and middle school, based on legislation, documents, and data from the Federal District School Census. It is a qualitative study guided by Bardin’s Content Analysis (2016). It concludes that: the Program has not shown improvement in educational achievement; the dropout and the percentage of 20.7% (Censo-DF, 2018) of the students under age/grade distortion is a fact to be faced through political actions and management of school projects. Political actions are proposed in financial and pedagogical management at the central and local levels, observing the principles of democratic management.

Keywords : Education; Financial Decentralization; Educational Achievement; Pedagogical Work; Educational Policy.
