This article aims to examine the Community School of Shared Management Program and its possibilities of policies and management of public education democratization in the State of Tocantins, Brazil. Considering the situation of this program, methodologically collated from a documentary study, it reflects on the scope and possibilities of democratization at play in the policies, management and policies of Basic Education implemented. In this context, it was verified that the measurement of results operates by the classification of schools and, unequally, determines the level of resources and benefits to be received. In addition, in the case of low income, there is the blame of the school itself and its actors. We conclude that there is an ambivalence between the propagation of a culture of accountability, called a "network of responsibility", and the implementation of a democratic management, interpreted as collective action that must be experienced continuously through the learning of democracy. Such ambivalence highlights the pertinence of problematizations about the definitions of democracy in the context of this policy.
