The multipurpose schools were designed based on cooperation agreements between Brazil and the United States, amalgamated with Law 5,692/71, and aimed at a vocational survey. This thesis defended within the Postgraduate Program in Education at the Federal University of Uberlândia (UFU), is part of the History and Historiography of Education research line whose investigative object was the Escola Estadual Polivalente Dr. Tharsis Campos, located in the municipality of Catalão – GO, started from the problematic: Could the original project of multipurpose schools be implemented considering the end of foreign financing from the initial period of 1971? Thus, the general objective of this study was to analyze, through documentary sources, whether this vocational education occurred in the years 1978 to 1985. The time frame is justified by the year the school was founded and the moment in which the provision of this type of education ceased. to be mandatory in the country, respectively. With specific objectives, chapter I was dedicated to pointing out the historical aspects of the implementation of multipurpose schools in Brazil and in Goiás specifically. In chapter II, the municipality of Catalão was presented and contextualized for the research. Chapter III aimed to present the school's organizational structure. And, finally, chapter IV shows an analysis of daily life and the organization of didactic work carried out at school. The study presented here was methodologically based on a bibliographical review and documentary analysis of the school archive. Furthermore, we highlight its originality, since there is no research involving the topic in the state of Goiás. The school studied offered, alongside regular subjects, the subjects of Agricultural Techniques, Commercial Techniques, Industrial Techniques and Home Education. It began its activities at a time when funding from the MEC-USAID agreements had already ended, that is, under the last agreement, the school lacked financial resources that greatly influenced the provision of education. In the years contextualized in the research, the school served more than 8,000 students from the municipality and neighboring cities, and even with difficulties, it offered schooling to them, however, not vocational education as was the a priori proposal envisaged for this modality.
