According to the provisions of the National Plan of Education (PNE) 2014-2024 - Law no. 13,005, of June 25, 2014, the sub-national plans should establish their own monitoring and evaluation systems, observing cohesion in relation to this national plan. This article, based on document analysis, investigates the role assigned to the Municipal Education Councils (CME) in monitoring and evaluation the Municipal Education Plans (PME) taking as an empirical basis nineteen plans belonging to the metropolitan region of Rio de Janeiro that are with the new PNE. As a general conclusion, it was found that the majority of the respective laws that regulate the analyzed plans include, in explicit form, the CME, and the Municipal Department of Education, as a privileged body in the continuous monitoring and evaluation of the plans. However, the prominence given to CME in the body of laws for these actions presents a certain lack of harmony in relation to the decisions of the plan itself (goals and strategies), as its presence in this plan is exiguous, because only two PMEs emphasize the role of this collegiate body in the specific sections, while the other two just mention it in two strategies. It is also emphasized that if the set of laws is imposed, it is possible that this process of monitoring and systematic evaluation of these municipal plans may be come effective, enabling the re-planning of actions and adequacy of strategies, and thereby contributing to the local implementation of the plan.

Keywords : Municipal Education Councils; Municipal Education Plans; National Education Plans.
