Introduction: stroke is a major health problem. One of the factors of delay in care is the population's ignorance of the disease. Objective: To determine the effectiveness of the teaching of cerebrovascular accident in children who are attending compulsory primary education (EPO) at La Trinidad school in Córdoba. MethodologY: descriptive observational study. Through an anonymous questionnaire, the knowledge they presented before and after a 30-minute training session is investigated. Results: Two hundred and eighty-seven participants, 146 (50.9%) boys and 141 (49.1%) girls, divided into 12 different classes. After the intervention, we had a higher number of correct answers than non-correct answers in the questionnaire, and as P <0.01 in most of the questions in range 1 with respect to range 2 and 3, so the best age for knowledge retention is rank 2, 9-10 years. Conclusion: this work, despite its limitations, has shown that educational intervention on stroke improves students' level of knowledge.
