Resumo
This research, linked to the Post-Graduation Program in Education, in the Rondonopolis University Campus, Mato Grosso Federal University (PPGEdu/CUR/UFMT), Teachers Education and Educational Public Policies line, discusses the educational process a teacher goes through when s/he is in charge of the school management in the elementary level in the State of Mato Grosso public school system. The goal is to understand how the educational process of such professional takes place when s/he is at work in order to contribute to a reflection regarding the way this process has offered him/her opportunities to develop activities related to his/her position. In order to so do, it is tried to identify the main demands and challenges when it comes to school management as well as the means used by the teacher-manager when facing it; to examine the training activities offered by the public departments in charge of them and to investigate the contributions of stage 1 and continuing formation for the materialization of activities related to the position. The methodology used was a qualitative one combined with the dialectical-historical materialism approach and the use of the content analysis method recommended by L. Bardin. It makes use of research procedures such as interview, questionnaire and document analysis. The first two are applied to ten educators that were performing their first term at school (biennium 2010/2011) in regular schools in the state school network in the municipality of Rondonopolis, State of Mato Grosso, that offered, simultaneously, elementary education and high school. The third procedure (document analysis) is carried out by using the material provided by the Mato Grosso State Education Board (SEDUC-MT) at hand during the educators’ training activities, especially those involved with the management of elementary education institutions in the location previously mentioned. The categories of analysis are the educational processes carried out by the education social actors about to perform the school management, mostly the teachers-managers and the people in charge at the public agencies to offer training hours in the State - SEDUC-MT, pedagogical supporting offices in the municipalities (ASPM) and the Educational and Professional Development Center in Elementary School (CEFAPRO). The results indicate that the main challenges identified by the interviewees are the large amount of bureaucratic activities, conflicting relationships with the teachers and school supporting staff, indiscipline among students, problems with the data processing system, drop-outs and drugs, which contribute to the definition of long working shifts they are to follow. Through this research it is clear that little material is delivered during the training activities carried out by the agencies here analyzed and, in general, such material refers to educational laws or guidelines. It is also clear that the teacher-manager’s continuing education is offered in a straightforward and emergency-like way to satisfy the legal expectations, instead of following a policy that covers the professional education of every educator. This way, it is surely necessary that the public agencies offer effective education to the teachers-managers, that theory and practice may happen by means of the very use of diversified methodologies that include research about/in the educational context involving different subjects that are in action, observation of successful experiences through technical visits to the schools, workshops, case simulations, videos, among others.
