This study is a comparative analysis of the expansion and access to secondary education in the Brazilian states of Bahia, Maranhão, Pará, Piauí, Rio Grande do Norte, and Sergipe in the period of 1942 to 1961, a period marked in time initially by the Organic Law of Secondary Education (Lei Orgânica do Ensino Secundário) and at the end by the Law of Guidelines and Foundations of National Education (Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional). Statistical yearbooks and educational statistics were used as sources. Analysis indicates that the expansion of this educational level was characterized by unequal access to lower secondary education compared to upper secondary education because most of the municipalities outside the capital cities offered only the former; the capital cities concentrated the largest number of establishments with a full secondary education. Upper secondary education courses, therefore, were fewer in number. Consideration of the number of students concluding the courses showed selectiveness in secondary education, in spite of the expansion of enrollments and offer of schooling that occurred in the period analyzed.
