This article discusses Public Education in the Province of Piauí and its expansion, adopting the period between the years 1834, with the Additional Act to the Constitution, which ended the educational model implemented with the Royal Classes, and 1852, with the transfer of the capital of the Province of Oeiras to Teresina, in which there were limited attempts to institutionalize public education during the Regency and the first years of the Second Empire. Methodologically, this is a historical research with a bibliographic basis that, in addition to the existing literature on the subject and the legislation in force in the period, was supported by the documentation belonging to the Public Archives of the State of Piauí - APEPI, especially, the documentation issued by the Presidency of the Province and by the Provincial Assembly, which allowed the construction of a dialogue that allowed new perspectives on the history of education in the period, as well as the reflection on other dimensions of the local social fabric. In general, with the research, there was a slow expansion of Public Education, as a consequence of the small interest of public authorities in its development, resulting in limited investments, combined with a productive model that demanded little formal knowledge in its daily practices.

Keywords : history; public instruction; public instruction; teaching reform; piauí (19th century).
