TRIPODI, Zara Figueiredo  and  OLIVEIRA, Tatiana Padilha. Bolsa Família Program and educational inequalities: scope and limits of the Program in light of the legal framework. J. Pol. Educ-s [online]. 2020, vol.14, e71065.  Epub Apr 20, 2022. ISSN 1981-1969.  https://doi.org/10.5380/jpe.v14i0.71065.

The aim was to examine possible scope and limits of the Bolsa Família Program in reducing educational inequalities, in light of its legal framework. Qualitative approach and documentary research were used as a procedure. As a theoretical tool, the work was based on a literature focused on the discussion of inequalities and the right to education. The research findings allow to conclude that one of the scope of the PBF was to protect the beneficiary from possible punishment, in case of noncompliance with educational conditionality. Already found the limits refer to the low potential of compulsory registration to reverberate in reducing educational inequalities due to fragile articulation of education and other policies across sectors.

Keywords : Educational policy; Inequalities; Bolsa Família Program.
