Abstract: This paper aims to analyze the relationship between teacher’s experience and educational quality in Brazil. The hypothesis of teachers’ experience curve (TEC) was formulated to verify whether the teacher’s experience shows a quadratic rela-tionship with the student’s academics achievement in exams. A panel of schools was set up using the data from the Prova Brasil for the years 2007, 2009 and 2011, in which the average student’s achievement, per school, in Mathematics and Portuguese Language, was regressed against the quadratic polynomial of the average teachers’ experience as was proceeded by Grossman and Krueger (1995) to verify the hypothesis of environmental Kuznets curve and Lim and Tang (2008) testing the educational Kuznets curve. The results pointed that there is no evi-dence to validate the hypothesis of TEC.
