This paper debates two problems. The first problem represents the poorest classes and their children against the effects of schooling, looking at the strategies and construction of meanings produced by these consumers. The second, using a working school as an example, looks at the plurality of the existing educative methods and at their cultures. The institutionalization of the elementary school was created from a very well scheduled plan for cultural homogeneity. However, the subjects of the schooling (and their families) were not receptive of the actions of this republican project: they did not exclusively follow the legal decisions in the way they expected. The poorest classes of the society used strategies to include themselves in the well-educated strata, using the non-official and free education system. These strategies made it very difficult for the Republican Government to create a national education system. On the other hand, the project of cultural homogeneity shocked the other existing elementary school and their identities.
