GOUVEIA, Andréa Barbosa; SOUZA, Ângelo Ricardo de  and  TAVARES, Taís Moura. O Ideb e as políticas educacionais na região metropolitana de Curitiba. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2009, vol.20, n.42, pp.45-57. ISSN 0103-6831.

This article presents the results of a research about the effectiveness of educational politicies in Curitiba's Metropolitan Area and the coast of the State of Paraná  (RMCL). The text compares the results of all counties in Ideb - Brazilian Basic Education Development Index with other social and economic indicators (Human Development Index - IDHM; Poverty Index) and educational indicators (Per capita student cost; Enrolment Index). The main conclusions point to the existence of a correlation between the social and economic variable (Poverty index and IDHM) and school performance as measured by Ideb. However, the financial resources invested in education are the most important factor to determine the educational quality in RMCL.

Keywords : Elementary Education; Ideb; Educational Policies; Learning Performance; Teaching Quality.
