This article analyzes, from the research "Being Girl in Brazil", the welfare in the school and the (low) perception of the gender discrimination by girls of 6 to 14 years. We used the quantitative data of the School-Sample, involving 1,609 girls from 21 Brazilian municipalities, referring to the "School and Schooling" dimension and which points out the girls perception about the attendance at school, reasons for missing school, levels of approval and disapproval, interruption of studies, reasons for expulsion, school tasks, gender relations in the school context, and school satisfaction and well-being. The analysis indicated a favorable perception of well-being in school and gender relations beneficial to girls. Such studies should focus on the educational context, which enables the insertion and construction of a place of belonging and the rupture with a culture of social inequality that still masks exclusion.

Keywords : Welfare; School; Genre; Girls; Education.
