2Global Parents Survey | March 2018 | Brazil | Public


Nearly half (48%) of Brazilian parents list their child’s personal safety at school as among their three main anxieties about their child at school. This is higher than any other country surveyed.

Eighty-five percent of Brazilian parents rate the quality of teaching at their child’s school as fairly good or very good, above the global average of 78%.

However only slightly more than a quarter of parents (28%) rate the quality of free to attend schools in Brazil as good, which is unsurprising given Brazil’s rank of 63rd out of 70 countries in PISA.

How would you rate the quality of free to attend government-funded schools in your country?

However only slightly more than a quarter of parents (28%) rate the quality of free to attend schools in Brazil as good, which is unsurprising given Brazil’s rank of 63rd out of 70 countries in PISA. Fifty-one percent of Brazilian parents rate free to attend schools in their country as poor or very poor – higher than any other country surveyed in Latin America.

% Unlikely % Likely

Base: Parents of children who attend free to attend government funded schools (16767). Research commissioned by the Varkey Foundation, conducted by Ipsos MORI between 8th December 2017 - 15th January 2018.

If it was affordable for you, and if there was an appropriate local place available, how likely would you be to send your child to a fee paying school?

Brazilian parents are among the most likely surveyed in the world to want to send their children to a fee-paying school. Eighty-one percent of those whose children attend state school said they would be fairly likely or very likely to send their child to a fee-paying school if they could afford it and there was an appropriate place available. This is the highest in Latin America. Argentines were the least likely surveyed in Latin America with only 46% of parents saying they would be fairly or very likely to send their child to a fee-paying school if they could afford it and there was an appropriate place available. The global average is 55%.

NB: For this filtered question, Uganda and Kenya excluded due to a base size of below 100
