Abstract

Abstract This article analyzes the 2nd generation of public education privatization in São Paulo. Such categorization stems from a study of the processes that institutionalized the incidence of the private business sector in education since 1995. The period corresponds to the effectiveness of Resolution SEE no. 24, of April 5, 2005, during the Alckmin administration, which incorporated the recently created Associação Parceiros da Educação, a network of entrepreneurs, and instituted the Empresa Educadora program. The documentary research and the analysis of the educational offer conditions in 21 school units in the state of São Paulo indicated that the objective of promoting the improvement of the educational offer conditions was not verified. Corporate action in educational policy in an articulated way, however, was implemented. (AU)
