In this context, the objectives, strategies and financing of the accessible school bus of "Way to School Program" are analyzed, in the context of the National Plan of Rights of Persons with Disabilities - Living without Limits, with reference to the goal 4 and 4.6 strategy of the new National Education Plan. We conducted document research to address the conditions students with disabilities have to access to school and present the history of educational policy, identifying its investments and its scope.
