Abstract

The importance of school management for the quality of education is a widely discussed and researched topic. School management plays a fundamental role in the organization, administration and direction of schools, directly impacting the quality of teaching and learning. The central problem of this research is to understand how school management influences the quality of education in public schools in Timon-MA. The overall objective is to present a study that characterizes elementary schools from 1st to 5th grade in the municipality of Maranhão, from the perspective of participatory management. And it has the following specific objectives: to identify the main school management practices that contribute to improving the quality of education, to analyze the challenges faced by school managers in the pursuit of quality, and to assess the impact of participatory management on the quality of education. The methodology used consists of interviews and case studies with school managers. Data collection will be carried out through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, thus allowing an in-depth analysis of management practices adopted by schools and their impact on the quality of education. From the results obtained, it is concluded that school management plays a fundamental role in the quality of education. Participatory management, based on transparency, dialogue and involvement of all educational actors, proved to be an effective practice in the pursuit of quality. School managers face several challenges, such as lack of resources and inadequate structure, which can negatively impact the quality of education. It was found that there is still much to be done in this regard.
