However, it is estimated that some major examinations must be carried out, since it is not possible to continue with a sector budget that grows unlimitedly, but also to it requires other forms of budget allocation that involve structural change. The findings show the importance of advancing in these matters to support those strategic policies that Chile does not satisfactorily resolve: social segmentation of the school system, social inequality, and low quality of educational results.
