THIESEN, Juares Silva. International and bilingual schools as a global representation of internationalized curricula in Brazilian Primary Education. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2024, vol.40, e94402.  Epub 22-Nov-2024. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1984-0411.94402.

The primary objective of the work is to highlight the discursive strength produced concerning the curricular models of the so-called prestigious international schools and bilingual schools; both characterized as global representations of internationalized curricula, indicating reflections of this movement in curricular policies for Primary Education in Brazil. For this purpose, the first section presents an overview with information on standardization, typologies, quantitative data, and comments on schools with internationalized curriculum involving these two models in primary education in Brazil today. The second section highlights the discursive power built by international agencies and organizations, as well as managers of educational systems and schools around this idea of school education. To conclude, reflections of this movement are indicated in the production of curricular policy texts in Brazil, notably in official curricular guidelines such as the Common National Curricular Base (BNCC), the Law that instituted the so-called New High School and other curricular documents of state and local education systems.
