Brazilian special education, as a teaching modality, has an inclusive orientation, however, ensuring the permanence and access to knowledge requires financial investment. Considering this scenario, it aims to analyze the resources of special education in the context of Fundeb at the national level and in the state education networks of São Paulo and Espírito Santo, from 2009 to 2019. The documentary sources analyzed were enrollments for special education, student/year values, and expenses for education and special education. From the results, it appears that the amount allocated to this modality was increased, which may have had an impact on the increase in enrollment in these networks. Expenses from the special education subfunction also indicated an increasing trajectory, although it was not possible to analyze the specific values of Fundeb with this modality of teaching. Thereby, the study points out the need to change the statements of expenses, in order to guarantee the monitoring and control of resources linked to special education.
