This paper discusses the relationship between university and basic education in the context of university expansion and of policies for school hours expansion. It studies Projeto Escola Integrada {Integrated School Program}, a project by Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG) related to school hours extension policies by Belo Horizonte City Hall Office of Education (SMED/PBH), implemented from 2006 to 2013. The study is based on a critical theoretical framework. Institutional and official documents and interviews with UFMG and SMED coordinators, as well as with community teachers from three public schools were taken as sources. This paper describes the program highlighting its history, functioning and scope, as well as the subjects’ perceptions on the participating institutions’ roles and the relations they established, pointing to some limits and contributions of these relations.

Keywords : University; University Service; Basic Education; Extended School Hours.
