Abstract: The article aims to analyze access to primary education in Recife in the 1960s. During this period, public policies were implemented aimed at access to education and culture, which gave Recife residents the opportunity to encounter their own identity as a human being. The emergence of knowledge sharing spaces was an innovation in the city, as they provided children and young people with the possibility of learning. However, this appropriation of knowledge made possible for the people was defined and controlled by the State, through the intellectual elites of Recife. It was through the Popular Culture Movement (MCP), created on May 13, 1960, during the first administration of Mayor Miguel Arraes, that an educational program was disseminated in which literacy for children and adults was a priority. The purpose of the movement was to raise the cultural level of the less favored, as well as to improve their ability to understand, interpret and transform the reality in which they lived, through emancipatory social and political ideas.
