This article presents the first stage in the process of constructing a monitoring system for a public network of early childhood education in the city of Rio de Janeiro. Beginning with theoretical concepts regarding evaluation and monitoring, 149 individual school units were evaluated. Data collection followed the environmental rating scales model, and analysis was performed according to the Classical Theory of Measurement. The goal was focused on extracting aspects relevant to the monitoring of early childhood education policies of the city in question. Analysis of the data also included the compilation of information from different sources about the functioning of the municipal network. Seven dimensions were identified for the composition of monitoring educational policies and practices, in addition to aspects that could contribute to improving the services of early childhood education schools.
