Abstract: This research aimed to evaluate the incorporated conceptions and dispute processes surrounding the Full-Time School Program (PETI) established by the federal government in Law No. 14,640/2023. The program is the third of successive policies for Full-Time Education (EI) and the second related to goal 6 of the 2014-2024 National Education Plan (PNE), namely: increasing enrollments in this modality. The program's operation occurs through financial transfers to entities to adapt schools to the expansion of the school day, reducing the conception of EI - linked to the integral formation of the human being - to time within the school. Although resources are scarce for Education, there is no prior study of local demands for full-time education in the school community. Nor are there metrics and conditions within the program's scope for receiving resources, demonstrating a quantitative concern to the detriment of qualitative transformations in the Brazilian educational scenario. To situate PETI within the totality of EI, a critical-dialectical method was used to understand the movements of mediation and contradiction embedded in the program. From a qualitative approach, bibliographic and documentary research was carried out, first around the theme to understand the roots of EI and its conceptions, and second, within the sphere of the text itself and the norms and reports that accompany it. It is concluded that PETI did not deviate from its immediate purpose, which is an attempt to reach the already distant goal 6 of the PNE. With inadequate metrics to assess effectiveness and efficiency in the context of EI, the program was instituted without addressing the reasons for its priority and without control over the conception of Education practiced. Therefore, it translates into yet another attempt to intertwine a complex structure - required by the magnitude that is EI - without considering the space and time dimensions, required by the context of social relations present in Brazilian educational policies. Thus, the research fosters debate on the conceptions of Education that are in the public arena today and assists public agents in developing policies that promote significant improvements in the quality of public education.
