ABSTRACT. This article analyzes, within the area of public policies of school transportation and nucleation of rural schools, the conditions of access and permanence of students of a riverain school in Cametá (Pará, Brazil). The research is configured as a case study, which uses data collection techniques to apply questionnaires with 119 students from 6th to 9th grade of elementary school and with 14 boat owners, as well as in loco observations at the school surveyed. The results obtained indicate that, although school transportation is an important policy for students of riverain schools, there are weaknesses in the execution due to the lack of a control policy by the Secretariat of Education to monitor and monitor the provision of this service. It also, highlights the need for the establishment of social control mechanisms of the school transport policy that favor the participation of representatives of the Secretariat of Education, parents, boatmen, school social organizations and school representatives.   Keywords: Education of the countryside, Riparian schools, School Transportation.
