This article discusses the curricular proposal "São Paulo Faz Escola", which was implemented in public schools in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, in 2008 and still in action. This proposal unifies and prescribes contents and procedures of different disciplines. It is diffused through didactic materials for teachers, school administrators, and students, as well as through videos on teachers' continuing training. We analyze the subjects' contents on the Curriculum Proposal and the materiality of the educational printed material for teachers and students. For this we observe their explicit and implicit goals, the underlying concepts of education and history, the mobilized concepts, its contradictions, and the representations concerning the different subjects involved. In particular, we emphasize the school subject History, which is addressed in a linear, evolutionary, and Eurocentric way; as well as the adopted approach to the so called major figures and events. This ignores the debates and initiatives that have been taking place in the curricular and historiographical field since, at least, the 1980s.
