Democratic management. Management Management. School Council.
This study has as its research object the School Council as an executing unit in the construction of democratic

of the study was to investigate the implications of the School Council's performance as an executing unit in
the practice of democratic management in public schools in the municipality of Delmiro Gouveia, in the state of
Alagoas, from 2021 to 2022, and the specific objectives were: ) Know the school management concepts defended

the effectiveness of democratic management in municipal public schools; c) Identify, in the school management
practices developed by public schools in Delmir, evidence of the School Council's impact as an executing unit.
The methodology was characterized by its qualitative nature, with an exploratory approach, and the case study,
as a research technique. The instrument for data collection was through a semi-structured interview, and
Content Analysis will be used to analyze the collected and researched data. Up to the present moment of the
research, the results obtained highlight that in the 1980s, with the redemocratization of the country, the
conception of democratic management in the school comes into force, since it was linked to the new standards
of society and that it fit the aspects structural and social aspects of education. In the 1990s, with neoliberal
ideals and the economic crisis in western countries arising from the 1980s, managerial management was
configured. The last two conceptions are those that are present in school contexts, and this causes
contradictions in the School Council guidelines, because on the one hand, there are the guidelines of
democratic school management that seeks, from participation and collectivity, to build a dynamic and
democratic space; on the other, managerial management, arising from educational policies that value
efficiency in the execution of functions and organize the functioning of the institution, according to
the logic of the market.
