This book deals with educational performance and inequality between the planning regions of the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil. It is therefore a fundamental discussion for better thinking about the development of educational policies with a focus on equity. It can be considered a very relevant work on the subject, especially since there is still little work on this type of inequality in Minas Gerais, especially in terms of short-term, school-based policies. The main issue is to address the factors related to education policy and verify their impact on performance and, above all, on the educational inequality established between the ten planning regions of the state of Minas Gerais.
