The year 2020 was marked by the Covid-19 pandemic which triggered policies of social containment. In education, such policies resulted in the closure of school institutions. During the pandemic, the organization of financial capital around the Education agenda proposed an adjustment with important impacts on the work carried out in schools, especially, on the teaching work. In this article, we analyze some elements of this agenda in the pandemic period and regarding its correlation with the financial capital strategies since the 1990s. It is important to understand the faces of the precariousness of the teaching work (SILVA; MOTTA, 2019) from the accountability dimension (EVANGELISTA, 2017) as a strategy to control financial capital. The work is directed towards the analysis of documents produced by two financial capital agencies and the respective coalitions operated by them. As a continuity trait, the study showed that, during the pandemic period, the agenda formulated by financial capital has a close relationship with the Education for All agenda and with the elements that produce precarious teaching.
