To be clear, it isn’t that Freire just Marxified education and that it doesn’t include Marxist indoctrination as well. Freire unapologetically uses his Marxified educational theory (Critical Pedagogy) to teach a Critical variation of Marxist Theory, too. He is absolutely clear (and devotes chapters of his books) to the objective of his educational program: to raise a Marxist or critical consciousness in “learners” so that they might engage in revolutionary struggle to overthrow the existing system.
