KOSLINSKI, Mariane Campelo; CUNHA, Carolina Portela da and ANDRADE, Felipe Macedo de. Scholastic accountability: an exploratory study of the profile of award-winning schools. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2014, vol.25, n.59, pp.108-137. ISSN 0103-6831. https://doi.org/10.1822/255920142865.
This article investigates the profile of schools that were rewarded for one of the programs that comprise the school accountability policy, recently adopted by the Municipal Department of Education (SME) of Rio de Janeiro. A bibliography indicating how the design of accountability policies may send different signals to school actors is discussed; and, the SME policy for school accountability in Rio de Janeiro is described briefly. The analyses used SME databases from Rio de Janeiro and the contextual questionnaires from the Prova Brasil; some limitations of the program that rewards the efforts of school actors are identified. In the final considerations, some alterations in the rules that seek to correct some of the signals/incentives sent by the program focused on in this study are pointed out.
