In recent decades, bilingual education has grown exponentially in private schools, and more recently in public schools. Thus, this article aims to analyze policies in the national, state and local context for bilingual education from the theoretical perspective of curriculum internationalization (LEASK, 2013). For policy analysis, we used the bilingual education models proposed by Hornberger (1991). It is an approach, qualitative and documentary research. The data point to a conceptual limitation in public policies for bilingual education. It is also possible to observe the presence of two dominant models, that of maintenance and that of enrichment, promoting the preservation of minority immigration languages, and cultural pluralism. The need to broaden the debate in teacher education is highlighted.
