This article deals with the Education of the MST in its relationship with the State and multilateral organizations, synthesized in the Rural Education Policy. Our research was based on the analysis of the documents of the MST, the State and multilateral organizations, interviews and questionnaires. From this study we come to the conclusion that the class character of education in the MST is subsumed to the consensus that starts from the I ENERA, focused on the struggle for education focused on the public policy of Rural Education, representing a consensus between antagonistic class fractions. We support the need for an education of the working class, which in this moment is given with limits and contradictions, but we recognize it as necessary for the construction of experiences for an accumulation of future forces.
