FERREIRA, Eliza Bartolozzi. Ensino médio no Brasil: os desafios das políticas de garantia do direito a sua universalização. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2011, vol.17, n.34, pp.507-525. ISSN 1981-0431.

This paper aims at addressing the challenges of secondary education. It presents political and economic aspects relative to the democratization of secondary education, including data on the coverage of Brazilian schools. It also debates the social function of secondary school, in view of educational policies currently implemented. Finally, it concludes that legal advances and the implementation of educational programs aimed at the expansion of secondary education have generated poor results, suggesting that the universalization of secondary education will remain a long-term challenge to overcome.

Palabras clave : High School Education; Education Policies; Basic Education.
