MENDES, Valdelaine. Participação da sociedade na definição dos rumos da Escola Pública: manter ou eliminar a reprovação?. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2007, vol.18, n.36, pp.07-30. ISSN 0103-6831.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the consequences of the society’s participation in the public policy of maintaining or modifying the manners in which  teaching is organized. The public policy analyzed - Constituinte Escolar: escola democrática e popular - aimed at bringing together society in defining educational principles and policies for public teaching in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The study showed that the whole participation process created conditions for a reflection about the teaching organization; however that was not enough to produce more significant changes in the school routines.

Keywords : Participation; Public Policies; School.
