Formal education occurs in specific spaces such as schools and educational institutions, and according to the National Education Guidelines and Bases Law can be offered in private and public institutions. However, despite the obligation of public bodies to promote it with minimum standards of quality, there are failures in the provision of educational services. Thus, when it is found that the service rendered in a public school has not served the purpose for which it is intended, what to do? Who to turn to? What are the guarantees that the Education Law can afford to protect the right to quality education in public schools? . To answer these questions will be analyzed the topics that refer to the legal historical antecedents of education in Brazil, the Responsibility imputed to the entities of the public administration in the light of the educational law, the search for the definition of the concept of Quality employed to education and finally, which bodies are constituted to protect the right to quality education. The relevance of this study is made by the importance of education as an indispensable mechanism for human development and social rights of citizens.
