SALES, Luis Carlos  e  SOUSA, Antonia Melo de. STUDENT COST IN CHILDHOOD EDUCATION IN TERESINA: BETWEEN FUNDEB'S REALITY AND CAQi'S DREAM. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2016, vol.32, n.1, pp.55-77. ISSN 1982-6621.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0102-4698141253.

Why does Brazilian Federal Union needs to invest more resources in education? This article shows a contextualization of Brazilian educational policy, emphasizing the political background (Fundef and Fundeb). It begins with the brief history of the municipalization process and then it shows the expenses student / year of early childhood education in Teresina in 2012. By the ingredients method, cost per student/year was calculated, setting a collection plan involving six categories related to the direct preschools' operation cost. It was perceived, as result, that the cost of early childhood education in Teresina was more than the Fundeb funding and lower than projected for the CAQi Municipality revenue (its own resources and Fundeb) are not enough to fulfill the demand of early childhood education with the quality that people deserve and ask for a long time. This was neglected by Fundef during 10 years and is still not fully financed by Fundeb nowadays.
