This study aimed to analyze education policies and actions that were designed based on the Índice de Desenvolvimento da Educação Básica [Basic Education Development Index] (Ideb) in four municipalities in the Vitória metropolitan area: Cariacica, Serra, Vila Velha and Vitória. Our qualitative approach used documentary analysis and interviews with managers at the Education Departments. The results indicate contradictions in the implemented policies and actions. On the one hand, we found practices that seek to support the school and engage it in reflections about its results and work processes in order to drive improvements. On the other hand, these measures create more evaluations, exams ratings and rankings, thus increasing the school’s submission to external evaluation results.

Keywords : IDEB; EDUCATION EVALUATION; EDUCATION POLICY.
