Objective: To identify the difficulties of the nurse performance in the actions carried out in the PSE, and to evaluate the student’s perception about the program through validated questionnaires containing open and closed questions. Methods: 6 nurses and 358 students from public schools located in the city of Parnaíba-Piauí-Brazil answered a pre-tested questionnaire appropriate for the target audience: students or professionals. Results: Students acknowledged the nurse’s performance in the school setting, but the majority reported that there was no assessment of health problems, no blood pressure checked, no orientation on nutritional habits and no guidance on vaccination. The action with the most coherence in the responses among the participants was the measurement of weight and height (65.6%) and the lowest was the assessment of vision (15.4%). Conclusion: The nurses highlight that the excess of assignments in the UBS, the lack of involvement of schools and the lack of intersectoral articulation are the main problems for the good execution of the PSE.
