State Fund for Basic Education Councils
The State Fund for Basic Education Councils - created by a constitutional amendment in 2006 and regulated in 2007 ? are collegial bodies formed by diverse social representations. It acts autonomously, without any subordination or link to the state or municipal administration.

The fund councils should have at least 12 members, of which: 3 representatives of the State Executive Branch, of which at least 1 from the state agency responsible for basic education; 2 representatives of the Executive branch; 1 representative of the State Council of Education; 1 representative of the sectional area of the National Union of Municipal Education Managers; 1 representative of the sectional area of the National Confederation of Workers in Education; 2 representatives of parents of public primary school students; 2 representatives of public primary school students - one of which is referred by the state entity of high school students.
