The purpose of this article was to discuss the impacts of PIBID on the improvement of the quality of basic education, from the perspective of those who compose it. It is one of the categories of analysis discussed in a broader research of qualitative approach that relied on document analysis and semi-structured interview as main instruments of construction and data analysis. The interviews were performed with six coordinators, seven supervisors, four collaborators and forty-eight scholarship students of four subprojects of a Brazilian federal university in 2013. The results showed that PIBID, although supporting new and different activities in schools, it cannot contribute, by itself, to improve the quality of basic education. This is because a program is unable to single-handedly change the Brazilian educational reality.
