ABSTRACT
This paper analyzed the repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic for education in rural communities in which students with a Degree in Rural Education from the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG, Brazil) work and/or reside. The study refers to a broader research, linked to the extension project "Peoples of the Field and the COVID-19 pandemic", created in April 2020. The methodological course of the investigation consisted in the application of online questionnaires in two moments of the pandemic in Brazil (April/May and July 2020). These instruments were answered by 36 (thirty-six) students in the first stage and by 46 (forty-six) students in the second stage. The data were analyzed from the two moments of the research, described and compared to the literature in the rural education area. Thus, at first, a greater movement was observed to keep schools closed and, in the second moment, attempts were observed to establish an emergency remote education with distribution of materials and classes/online contacts. We evidence that the pandemic exposed and accentuated inequalities in school supply in the Brazilian public network, highlighting the historical precariousness of public policies aimed at the education of peasant populations.
