The Secretariat of Education ({{langx|es|link=no|Secretaría de Educación}}, formerly Ministry of Education) of Argentina is a secretariat and former ministry of the national executive power that oversaw education policies on all educational levels, alongside the governments of the twenty-three provinces of Argentina and the City of Buenos Aires.

The Ministry was founded in 1949, when the state's education portfolio was split from the Ministry of Justice and Public Instruction in the first cabinet of President Juan Domingo Perón;{{cite journal|title=La educación durante los años peronistas.
