SANT'ANA, Andréa Márcia  y  SOUZA, Rosa Fátima de. Education in the Catholic Press (Ribeirão Preto, Brazil, 1949-1959). Acta Scientiarum. Education [online]. 2016, vol.38, n.2, pp.121-130. ISSN 2178-5201.  https://doi.org/10.4025/actascieduc.v38i2.26862.

The representations of education disseminated by the Catholic press between 1949 and 1959, are analysed. There was a great expansion of public education during this re-democratization period in Brazilian society, resulting in restricting denominational education and debates between Catholics and liberals on the new National Education Law and Guidelines. The newspaper Diário de Notícias published in Ribeirão Preto SP Brazil, by the Diocesan Curia, is discussed. Current study investigated how the Catholic press addressed the childhood theme, the aims and expansion of primary education, the inclusion of the popular classes in the school, the Adult Literacy Campaign and the goals of preparatory or vocational secondary education. Conservative positions, foregrounded on the enhancement of civic and patriotic values and religious education as the foundation of family and society, were forwarded.
