Um estudo sobre o distanciamento entre teoria e prática relativo à gestão educacional e o papel dos agentes da educação nessa aproximação: limites e possibiliddades

Abstract

This research aimed to study the gap between theory and practice on the management education and how education agents may contribute to decrease that distance. For this, developed a type of qualitative research case study. 10 teachers participated in this study the final grades of primary education in a state school in the town of Santa Rosa, RS, along with board members and other segments of the school. As methodological procedure was applied a questionnaire with open questions. The reflections analyzed point to the importance of the approximation and the actual realization of a democratic educational management. The theory is clear on Educational Management in most educational institutions, but sometimes the distance between theory and practice is great. The knowledge of the institution, the laws, the political pedagogical project, the community in which the school is located, is vital so that you can actually participate in the realization of the educational process. The teachers, staff, students and parents must increasingly participate in discussions and decisions, will focus more on the school and therefore will become more critical and demanding of their rights and duties related to education, not only with regard to education, but that implies its citizenry as a whole.
