The objective of this research was to reveal the construction of meaning and sense that young people economically advantaged parts of society of Espirito Santo on social inequality and the link between education and social inequality. We tried to identify what is social inequality for these young people perceive as the mechanisms for social mobility, social inequality they experience in their daily lives and relationships established between education and social inequality. The survey was conducted in two stages. At one stage, the questionnaire was applied in 404 young students from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd year of high school for five private schools in the cities of Vitoria and Vila Velha / ES. In the 2nd stage of the research were semistructured interviews with 10 young people, with seven girls and three boys, all participants of the 1st stage of the research. The questionnaire data were tabulated and quantified and the analysis of the justifications given to the matter that made up the questionnaire was done through the creation of categories and subcategories of responses. Interview data were organized from the themes proposed by the research and analyzed through the identification of pre-indicators and indicators in order to articulate the meanings expressed by young people. The results showed income inequality as the central element that characterizes the inequality for these young people a greater weight of acquired characteristics as a mechanism of social mobilization; violence as an expression of social inequality more present in their daily lives and education as a resource to generate equal opportunities
