Abstract

This article discusses the coproduction of public education by student’s families and how it is influenced by the family members’ profile. Interviews were conducted with ten school principals, with sampling and analysis based on theoretical saturation, and a survey with 269 family members from Distrito Federal, using logistic regression as the data analysis methodology. From this, all categories of coproduction identified in Europe by Pestoff (2006) were confirmed, and another raised from the interviews, the coproduction by basic family support. Additionally, the data analysis showed significant influence of the families’ level of education and their family habits on pedagogy, social, political and economic coproduction. The research highlighted the coproduction of public services by citizen in developing countries.
