A atuação do serviço de inspeção escolar nos processos de atos regulatórios das instituições de ensino de uma SRE de Minas Gerais

Abstract

This dissertation was developed as part of the Professional Master's Program in Education Management and Evaluation (PPGP) at the Center for Public Policies and Education Evaluation of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (CAEd/UFJF). The research focuses on a case study investigating the regulatory processes of maintaining entities and educational institutions in Basic Education within the Minas Gerais Education System, particularly those handled by the Regional Education Superintendence (SRE) of Minas Gerais. The study analyzes the processes completed with published ordinances versus those stalled in the system. It examines how these processes are conducted and identifies factors that contribute to delays and the need for re-submission, considering the detailed report with a conclusive opinion issued by the School Inspection Service as an essential component of these processes. The general objective of the study is to analyze the obstacles affecting the progress of regulatory processes within the SRE of Minas Gerais. The specific objectives include: (i) describing the workflow of regulatory processes received by the SRE of Minas Gerais, (ii) analyzing inconsistencies in the on-site verification reports issued by the School Inspection Service, and (iii) proposing an Educational Action Plan (PAE) to implement interventions aimed at improving the practice of processing regulatory acts by the SRE. The theoretical framework draws on authors such as Gonçalves (2000), Reis and Blattmann (2004), Moreira (2015), Batista (2012), Fayer (2013), Marques et al. (2014), among others. The methodology adopted was qualitative research, involving semi-structured interviews with SRE staff responsible for processing regulatory acts and questionnaires administered to school inspectors. Based on the analysis of interviews and questionnaires, an Educational Action Plan was developed with two main actions: (1) Systematic monitoring of regulatory processes, and (2) Training for school inspectors, focusing on the preparation of on-site verification reports, both involving SRE staff directly engaged in regulatory processes.
