The specific objectives sought to understand the Institute's education proposal and its links with the policies of multilateral organizations, including the World Bank, and the presence of neoliberal policies in the projects developed by the Institute; public-private partnership as part of these policies and how these partnerships are built, as well as their results. Thus, we tried to analyze the Institute's education proposal and how it was developed in the daily classroom and interference in the pedagogical practice. This research is based on qualitative bibliographic and documentary sources. To discuss the educational policies in the neoliberal context and public-private partnerships were used authors like Pablo Gentili, Luiz Carlos Bresser Pereira, Maria da Glória Marcondes Gohn, Perry Anderson, Vera Peroni, Marilia Fonseca and Eneida Oto Shiroma, among others. The documentary sources include the Institute's own site data, didactic materials available during the use of the program in the classroom, the teacher training activities, existing records in the municipal education of the municipality of Marau as well as the data recorded by teachers who participated in the activities in schools and the data with the municipal expenditures with the Institute,available at the Rio Grande do Sul Audit Office site.
