The article, organized in four sections, presents results of a study that aimed to map and characterize initiatives related to large-scale assessment in development in Brazilian municipalities. Initially, it presents a synthesis of studies already available on the subject, and then explains the methodological procedures of the study. In the third section, it discusses results obtained in the preliminary phase of the survey, which covers events from 4,309 municipalities. Finally, it draws conclusions about the concepts present in the reviews proposed by municipalities and how the results of the various existing evaluations are used by the administration of these federated entities, which highlight the consolidation of large-scale evaluation as a tool for educational management in the municipalities.

Keywords : Educational Evaluation; Educational Management; Survey; Evaluation policy of the municipalities.
