This paper examines how intergovernmental incoordination during the Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil affected the debate about the educational inequalities, in the context of debates about the Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (Enem) (National High School Exam). Based on an analysis of the political practices of President Jair Bolsonaro and the Minister of Education, it argues that the resumption of the pendulum movement between the dual and cooperative models of federalism has removed the federal government from the role of coordinator of public policy systems. In this context, discussions about the socio-economic inequalities were disqualified and federative units turned into political opponents. It is concluded that the brakes and counterweights played a decisive role in minimizing institutional damage. In isolation, the federal government failed to coordinate public policies that would mitigate the socio-economic problems aggravated by the pandemic.
