A prova Brasil e a questão da qualidade no trabalho do gestor educacional

Abstract

This paper develops a study of the educational assessments conducted by the State in public schools, seeing the indexes for the Brazilian education, being these the research objects, in the sense of understanding the effectiveness of the contribution to the educational manager work planning, questioning about the level of improvement in the quality of education after the results of Brazil Test. This discussion leads us to take into consideration that the assessments in their formats, are concepts that respond to an existing state model. For the analysis, it was developed a documentary research, at the Ministry of Education (MEC) and the National Institute for the Study and Research Anísio Teixeira (INEP) websites, looking for data and results of the Brazil Test from the last three years of assessment (2005 – 2007 – 2009) from four Brazilian schools, randomly chosen, with the similarity of being state schools, but from different states, in order to know the Brazilian variety in the issue. For the qualification of this work, it became necessary to conduct an interview with a manager of one of the four schools surveyed. From the data collected, it was found a discrepancy in results among the schools, thus revealing an evaluative model yet generic and not very effective for the work of the educational manager.
