CARVALHO, Maria João  and  FERREIRA, Ana Cristina Folgado. Self-evaluation teams: representations of educational actors. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2020, vol.25, e250028.  Epub May 04, 2020. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782020250028.

The evaluation of schools and educational policies has assumed a central role whose emergence and expansion is not slowing down. Considering the school’s self-evaluation, we developed a case study in school cluster in Portugal, seeking to know the teachers’ representations regarding the self-evaluation team and the impacts of their work. Data collection resulted from the application of a questionnaire survey to 217 teachers and 16 semi-structured interviews. We concluded that the self-evaluation was centered on the team that carried it out, with poor teacher involvement and little impact on their performance. Developed in response to external evaluation pressures, of schools and educational policies, self-evaluation has not yet been able to realize its full potential for organizational improvement.

Keywords : school self-evaluation; self-evaluation teams; teachers.
