The scope of this study was to analyze the normative measures issued about the Health in the School Program in order to ascertain the contribution and participation of the health and education sectors in the creation and implementation of the Program, since its success was based upon intersectoral action between them. The technique of content analysis proposed by Bardin, associated with ATLAS TI 5.2 software was used to conduct the research. The study revealed that the participation of the health and education sectors in the Health in the School Program is not well-balanced, pointing to the predominant role of health in areas such as financing and the centralization of the adhesion and coordination process of the Intersectoral Commission on Education and Health in the School.
