ABSTRACT This paper initially aims to understand and to present the characteristics and peculiarities of Brazil's national evaluation system. Next, the objective is to reflect about the functionality of the system and its legal and technical provisions to measure the teaching quality in the country. Finally, it will present data from Saeb (Basic Education Evaluation System), rates of student approval, and from Ideb (Index of Basic Education Development) to offer some reflections, though preliminary, about their results in 2005 and 2007. One is able to notice the construction of a complex evaluation system with important information about student performance and intra and extra-school context However, these results must be used with care, because we can use them to guide the improvement of educational policies towards the universalization of teaching quality, but aIso to incur a simplification of the meaning of teaching quality, drifting towards a meritocratic and, consequently, competitive logic between the units and the teaching networks.

Keywords : National Evaluation System; Evaluation; Teaching Quality; Educational Policie.
