It is based on the major milestones of this policy, focusing the percentages of tax revenue invested on education; the amount of resources contributed and received under the Fund for the Maintenance and Development of K-12 Education and Enhancement of Education Professionals; and the projection of complementation of this Fund for the guarantee of the Initial Quality Student Cost (CAQi). The methodology of the study was based on documental analysis and bibliographical survey. The results revealed significant and peculiar effects on the financing of this system, however, they do not show the means for a sustainable and effective financing policy, in order to overcome regional inequalities and the achievement of a quality public education.
