A política paulistana de EJA: territórios e desigualdades

The article assesses the literacy and education levels of the youth and adult population of the city of Sao Paulo, it also analyses the evolution of school coverage regarding this educational mode and makes recommendations for the city’s educational policy. The data collection related to registration, dropout rates and performance of youth and adult students in the municipal network from 2014 to 2016, in addition to the data on illiteracy in the city, show that only a small part of the demand is met. Although there is a positive variety of forms of service, there is a large concentration in a single model. This means that we cannot effectively attract the diversity of subjects of the different regions of the city.
