BATISTA, NEUSA CHAVES. THE DISCOURSE OF DEMOCRATIC SCHOOL MANAGEMENT IN A PARTICIPATORY EVALUATION POLICY. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2022, vol.33, e08726. Epub Nov 02, 2022. ISSN 1984-932X. https://doi.org/10.18222/eae.v33.8726.
The present study analyzes the impacts of a participatory evaluation policy of education on the discourse of school actors regarding perceptions and practices of democratic management. This is a public action that proposes the evaluation of educational indicators, with the participation of all segments of the school community. The present study uses assumptions of critical discourse analysis. The source consists of the justifications issued by 232 schools about goals and actions of democratic management for the state school system of Rio Grande do Sul. The analysis points to the predominance of discourses about the difficulties of implementing democratic management in public schools. Discourses that preserve some hierarchical structure of institutionalized positions in decision- -making are reproduced.
