Avaliação de desempenho como elemento do processo de gestão democrática da escola

Abstract

The whole society is transformed over time and that makes the change. Meanwhile, the school management assumes a democratic character, supported by laws, which also reflect this society made by individuals. The school management leaves a character centralizing, authoritarian and technical and assumes a characteristic participatory, negotiated and democratic, this enabling the participation of all in preparing for their journey and consequently in achieving their goals, which is the formation of citizens aware of their capacities, skills, rights and obligations in a society in constant transformation. From this perspective, we approach theoretically the point of performance assessment of managers as a means to assist the process of democratic management, we believe that there is a close relation between these two aspects and with this detect the relation between performance assessment and school management, check the importance of school to implement the performance evaluation for the construction of a democratic management and establish the necessity of performance evaluation how as an integral part of education systems. So, we support in a methodology exploratory approach in the form of bibliography research, which allowed us the necessary of familiarity of the subject. The perceptions ensuing research allows us to realize the importance of the process of democratic management and the consequent necessity of evaluating the performance of managers. However, we saw an important point: “The evaluation is a way rather adopted within the process of democratic management”, but some signs are already perceived, showing us that change is always been occurring.
