PREVIATTI, Areta Held  and  CASTANHO, Maria Eugênia. A autonomia da escola pública: limites e possibilidades. ETD [online]. 2007, vol.09, n.01, pp.393-409. ISSN 1676-2592.

The present article discusses and analyses the autonomy in Public Schools. We have investigated the factors that influence this autonomy aiming to demonstrate the existence of more limits or possibilities. In order to do that, we prioritized the bibliographic research. Also, to consider the praxis and have real data for the analysis, two interviews were done with professionals from education: one from a school and the other from the “diretoria de ensino”. The data collected indicates that, despite of the fact that brazilian laws guarantee more autonomy to the schools, they continue to suffer an exaggerated control from superior institutions. We Conclude that the fight for a more autonomic and equal school is very hard, but constitutes itself as a process that can happen.

Keywords : Public School; Autonomy; Bureaucracy.
