Abstract

ALBUQUERQUE, PASCOAL; FERREIRA, ANTÓNIO GOMES  and  BARREIRA, CARLOS. Changes in the results of the school external evaluation with the transition from unbundled schools to school clusters: the case of two school organizations. Revista Brasileira de Política e Administração da Educação [online]. 2021, vol.37, n.1, pp.20-41.  Epub Apr 08, 2022. ISSN 2447-4193.  https://doi.org/10.21573/vol37n12021.103993.

The aim was to investigate the influence of the transition to school clusters on the results of the AEE (Portuguese acronym for Schools External Evaluation) of two school organizations located in close geographical proximity. Considering the two AEE cycles already completed in Portugal (2006-2011 and 2011-2017), a documental analysis was carried out (4 AEE reports and 1 contradictory). The results reveal, among others, an improvement in the classification in the “Results” domain. The move to school clusters did not negatively influence the classifications obtained by each school organization.

Keywords : School clusters; External evaluation cycles; Schools external evaluation results.
