Abstract
The results of the International Student Assessment Program (PISA) have been used to promote research and debates on public practices and policies developed in countries with successful performances. In the wake of these investigations, the objective of the study was to research the Public Educational Policies involved in Science Teaching implemented in Singapore, Finland, and Brazil. Under the prism of comparative education, it took as a corpus of analysis: articles, theses and dissertations; legal documents from the countries under study; and OECD reports. The research findings show that Singapore and Finland: a) have decentralized education systems and flexible curricula; b) invest over 6,000 USD per student; c) strengthen school and university interaction; d) prioritize teacher training; e) have an attractive teaching career.
