Este estudo procura compreender a influência dos Modelos de Gestão no Ensino
Privado e a sua relação na eficiência do processo ensino/aprendizagem a partir dos
rankings das escolas. Os principais objetivos resumem-se à caracterização dos modelos
de gestão educacionais do ensino privado, a relação entre os modelos de gestão
praticados numa instituição do ensino privado com a eficiência do processo
ensino/aprendizagem a partir dos rankings das escolas, e por fim a relação entre a
influência da gestão de topo nas práticas profissionais dos docentes, no caso específico
na disciplina de Física e Química A.
Como ponto de partida procura-se definir o conceito “privatizar” e na sequência
é realizado um breve enquadramento teórico sobre a privatização do ensino e as
razões/motivos porque a privatização tem vindo a acentuar-se nas últimas décadas.
Neste seguimento é realizada uma breve resenha histórica do ensino privado em
Portugal.
No que concerne aos modelos de gestão e Racionalidades, são abordados alguns
modelos de gestão, considerados a base teórica para o funcionamento da escola como
estrutura organizacional complexa. Os modelos abordados foram o modelo burocrático,
o modelo político e o modelo (neo)institucional.
As escolas enquanto estruturas organizacionais atravessam uma fase em que
existe uma política de “prestação de contas” e desde que em 2001 foram publicados pela
primeira vez os rankings, levou a que a qualidade de algumas instituições de ensino
fosse posta em causa. Através da definição de eficiência e qualidade de escola por parte
de alguns investigadores da área das Ciências da Educação procura-se verificar se existe
alguma relação com a posição obtida nos rankings.
Na última parte deste trabalho, é feita uma análise e reflexão sobre o meu
percurso profissional, enquanto docente numa instituição do ensino privado e procurar
compreender se existe influência da gestão de topo nas práticas profissionais dos
docentes.
This study seeks to understand the influence of the Management Models in private schools and their connection to the efficiency of the teaching/learning process according to the school rankings.The main objectives are the description of educational management models in private education, the relation between the management models practiced in an institution of private education and the efficiency of the teaching/learning process according to the school rankings, and finally the connection between the influence from top management on teachers professional practices, specifically in the subject of Physics and Chemistry A. As a departure point, one seeks to define the concept of "privatize" and, consequently, it is presented a brief theoretical framework on the privatization of education and the reasons why it has been increasing in the last decades. Following this idea, a brief historical outline of private education in Portugal is also presented. Concerning the management models and rationalities, some are analysed, being considered the theoretical basis for the functioning of the school as a complex structure. The models which were analysed were the bureaucratic model, the political model and the (neo)institutionalmodel. As organizational structures, schools are going through a phase in which there is a policy of "accountability". Since 2001, whenthe school rankings were published for the first time, the quality of some teaching institutions started being questioned. Through the definition of efficiency and quality of school by some researchers from the area of the Sciences of Education, one seeks to verify whether there is any connection with the position obtained by the schools in the rankings. In the last part of this work, my professional career is analysed, as part of the teaching staff in an institution of private education and one seeks to understand if there is influence from top management on the professional practices of teachers.
