DESAFIOS DA GESTÃO ESCOLAR: PERCEPÇÃO DOS ALUNOS DO ENSINO MÉDIO SOBRE O PROCESSO DE GESTÃO DEMOCRÁTICA NA ESCOLA PÚBLICA

Abstract

The present study analyzed the public school students' perceptions regarding the democratic management process and participation in decision making in educational institutions. How students shape and identify the management and the political process through the daily reality of these individuals. This is a contemporary theme of extreme relevance for the improvement of the process of teaching learning and for the process of democratization of education. Students should be prioritized in participatory processes at school, these are rights guaranteed by CF / 88, LDB / 96 and ECA. These rights were won through many struggles and it was not easy to implement participatory democratic management within schools. From the disciplines of supervised internships and the PIBID, there arose the disquiet with the theme. The first and second chapter presents a theoretical basis with several authors such as: LÜCK, (2004; 2006; 2007a; 2007b; 2008; 2009) LIBÂNEO, (2004) The work operated with a semi-structured questionnaire with exploratory and qualitative character, and sample was of 10 high school students from a public school in the city of Areia, PB, Brazil. In the answers it was verified that the students feel excluded from the decision-making process, participation is very restricted; there is no dialogue with management / management; there are no elections for the manager's choice and they also affirmed that it is authoritarian. They have shown an interest in being part of the decision making process, a fundamental process for the critical, citizen and human formation of the students.
