Abstract

The curricular documents for Basic Education Sciences in Portuguese schools (ages 6 to 15) that currently affect teachers and students across the world integrate Sustainable Development concerns regarding soils. A sharp gap emerges between the official documents and the teachers’ perceptions of how to approach such issues.

A new organization of the curricular documents for this theme that aims to promote quality education among Portuguese Basic Education schools worldwide is proposed.
