Abstract

Current educational policies in the country and the new definitions for the teaching of music in school, established from the law 11.768/2008, have made important issues concerning the area of music education today emerge . Considering this reality, this study analyzes public policies related to basic education in Brazil,reflecting on their implications for the teaching of music in school. The discussions presented in the text are based on literature and documental sources related to programs and actions directed at basic education in the country. The analysis covers the objectives, procedures and impacts of proposals of evaluation of educational achievement (IDEB), consolidation and strengthening of basic education (FNDE, FUNDEB, PDE, PAR), and integration of different educational levels regarding the formation of teachers (PARFOR, PRODOCÊNCIA, PIBID). From the analysis, it is evident that there is a significant set of programs and actions for basic education in the country and that music education increasingly needs to participate effectively in the definition and implementation of educational policies that can strengthen the area, but, above all, school education as a whole.
