Resumo(s)
A presente investigação surge como resultado de um estudo empírico realizado no âmbito
do Mestrado em Administração Educacional.
Tendo em conta o interesse que o tema da gestão intermédia e das lideranças em contexto
escolar tem vindo a despertar nas últimas décadas, sobretudo nos vários países da europa,
e associando às mudanças políticas consideráveis que o Estado angolano tem vindo a
implementar com a Reforma educativa a vigorar mais ou menos a vinte anos, torna-se
oportuno refletir sobre a melhoria da qualidade da escola em Angola.
Foi desenvolvido um estudo empírico, com a finalidade fundamental de compreender o
papel das estruturas de gestão intermédias na liderança e promoção da melhoria da
qualidade da escola.
Em termos metodológicos, optou-se por um estudo de natureza mista, optando-se pela
realização de um estudo de caso, centrado em uma escola do ensino primário e do I ciclo
do ensino secundário no Lobito, Angola.
Conjugando técnicas de cariz quantitativo e qualitativo, o estudo envolveu a análise
documental, a realização de entrevistas e respetiva análise de conteúdo e aplicação e
análise estatística de um questionário. O trabalho realizado teve início em agosto de 2019
com a recolha de dados na escola em estudo e contou com a participação de 69
professores, incluindo o diretor da escola.
As conclusões mostraram que os gestores intermédios na escola surgem como lideranças
efetivas desempenhando um papel preponderante no dinamismo escolar, pois são eles que
no dia a dia estão mais perto e presentes na vida dos alunos, como mediadores diretos de
um processo de transmissão de valores e conhecimentos para a vida; são os facilitadores
na relação entre escola e família; compartilham com os demais professores da turma e
classes as conquistas e dificuldades destes na escola e nas famílias.
The present investigation is the result of an empirical study carried out within the scope of the Master in Educational Administration. Taking into account the interest that the topic of middle management and leadership in the school context has aroused in recent decades, especially in the various countries of Europe, and associated with the considerable political changes that the Angolan State has been implementing with the Educational Reform in force for approximately twenty years, it is opportune to reflect on improving the quality of the school in Angola. An empirical study was developed, with the fundamental purpose of understanding the role of intermediate management structures in leading and promoting the improvement of school quality. In methodological terms, we opted for a study of a mixed nature, opting for the realization of a case study, centered on a primary school and the 1st cycle of secondary education in Lobito, Angola. Combining quantitative and qualitative techniques, the study involved document analysis, interviews and respective content and applications analysis and statistical analysis of a questionnaire. The work carried out began in august 2019 with the collection of data at the school under study and was attended by 69 teachers, including the school principal. The conclusions showed that middle managers at school emerge as effective leaders playing a predominant role in school dynamism, as they are the ones who are closest and present in the lives of students on a daily basis, as direct mediators of a process of transmitting values and knowledge for life; are the facilitators in the relationship between school and family; share with the other teachers of the class and classes their achievements and difficulties in school and in families.
