Education is a fundamental tool to make a country's society equitable, just, and
respectful of the environment. As primary education is compulsory for a country's population,
it allows building knowledge and skills to promote sustainable development, in this sense, it
is necessary to examine whether the primary education curricular bases offer learning
opportunities and contexts for students at this stage to develop their awareness, knowledge
and skills in a sustainable way. The qualitative methodology was used, specifically, the
content analysis to analyze the 24 Chilean primary programs of Mathematics, Natural
Sciences and Social Sciences under the cognitive domain of Education for sustainable
development (ESD) and in terms of their learning objectives with the sustainability
development goals (SDGs). The results show that an interdisciplinary stochastic education in
the context of the curricular learning of Social Sciences and Natural Sciences provides
learning opportunities to develop ESD at the different levels that make up primary education.
It is observed that the Natural Sciences and Social Sciences curricula at all levels of primary
education lead to ESD are being developed in an interdisciplinary manner (with these two
subjects and stochastic themes).
