Abstract

This article addresses the challenges of school management with the aim of identifying the main challenges faced by managers in the daily life of the school. The study is characterized as qualitative research, with data collection, carried out through observation, questionnaire and semi-structured interview, with five secretaries and five school managers from the municipal network of Caucaia/CE. The material collected from the interviews was analyzed using content analysis. The results reveal that the biggest challenges perceived by these actors are related to the social and economic problems of students, infrastructure and territoriality. It was found that school management has the support of the community, the education department and existing public policies.
