Abstract
This article conducted an impact assessment of elementary schools in the Brazilian municipality of Belo Horizonte (BH), which were constructed and are managed through Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs). In order to achieve this objective, the grades of Portuguese language and mathematics disciplines from the SAEB exam in the years 2017 and 2019 were employed as a proxy for performance. The outcomes were diverse and revealed a modest positive impact. Nevertheless, the findings suggest that the superior performance of students from PPP schools could be linked to the enhanced infrastructure provided by these institutions.
期刊介绍：
The purpose of the International Journal of Educational Development is to foster critical debate about the role that education plays in development. IJED seeks both to develop new theoretical insights into the education-development relationship and new understandings of the extent and nature of educational change in diverse settings. It stresses the importance of understanding the interplay of local, national, regional and global contexts and dynamics in shaping education and development. Orthodox notions of development as being about growth, industrialisation or poverty reduction are increasingly questioned. There are competing accounts that stress the human dimensions of development.
