A política educacional em municípios com bons resultados no IDEB: mapeamento de características

Abstract

This search has analyzed Municipal Educational Policies to the Elementary School with the purpose of checking its main features, the empirical field used was a group of ten sul matogrossenses school networks that succeeded in the IDEB search in 2007. On its origin and development, it is connected to the search ―Good results on the IDEB: exploratory studies of explanatory factors‖, realized by USP/UFGD/UECE, funded by CAPES/INEP in the middle of the Program ―Educational Observatory‖. With a mixed methodology (quantitative qualitative), the search has made use of official databases, interviews, documents analysis, and it was supported by bibliographic educational studies and Political Science to the context comprehension, in which Educational Policies are build. The information allowed the characterization of the cities and their school networks, as well as their policies to the Elementary School. We have found that there is a relation between the more favorable contexts and higher IDEB results, and between larger variations in this indication and less favorable contexts. The features of the Municipal school networks are improving, but they are still in inadequate standards in most of cities. About the Municipal Educational Policies, we have found that the most expressive feature is the subsidiary one, followed by the democratic one, being low the coordination one, expressing some limits to the Municipal autonomy in the area.
