Resumo

Indicators associated with basic education are presented, including data from the Fund for the Maintenance and Development of Basic Education and for the Appreciation of Education Professionals (Fundeb), especially those related to specified investments per student and teacher’s salaries, and compared to those of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the group of countries, comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa: the BRICS. The figures presented by the OECD are generally very high and can be used as a reference to be reached by the countries that constitute the BRICS. In terms of comparing the indicators of these countries to those of OECD member countries, there are huge challenges. A problem to be solved is in relation to the obtaining of indicators (when they are available), since there is no database to access them. In the Brazilian case – and perhaps this is also applicable to some BRICS countries, such as India and South Africa –, it can be concluded that achieving the OECD parameters will be possible as long as three conditions occur simultaneously: stabilization of the total population, with the decrease in the number of school-aged children and youth; growth, which includes the gross domestic product (GDP), in the context of global capitalism as it is structured; and the consequent reduction of social inequality
