The processes of privatization in public education occur in different ways, primarily through agreements, contracts, or partnerships between institutes and education secretariats. This study aims to discuss this phenomenon in two northeastern states of Brazil: Ceará and Rio Grande do Norte, demonstrating how it interferes with the development of managerial tools in the educational context. The research method adopted was dialectical approach, and the procedures consisted of literature review, documentary analysis and excerpts from the research conducted with school administrators. The results indicate that managers end up redefining their roles to meet the interests of partner institutions, emphasizing the achievement of goals and results.

Keywords : privatization; partnerships; managerialism; school administrators.
