High School Education Reform and the capital-education relationship

Abstract

This work aims to make some notes about the relationship between capital and education. Its object is the Secondary Education Reform and its legal pieces, that is, Law 13.514/17 and the National Common Curricular Base, and discusses the subjects involved in directing debates and implementing such policies. This is a documental and bibliographical research that departs, for the analysis of the real, from historical-dialectical materialism. It is concluded that the reform of Secondary Education, carried out by curricular policies such as the BNCC, expresses the continuity of the action of private capital on public education, directing the training to be offered and the organization of the environment school, aiming to promote training aligned with the demands of the economy and disconnected from the real needs of overcoming the exploitative and despoiling production relations of the working class.
