Avaliação e Gestão

Abstract

The contradiction between the results of official assessments and what people, such as teachers, parents and students, think about education in Brazil is a major dilemma. Official evaluations may show good numbers, but people often feel that something is not right. This happens because official assessments do not capture everything that is important in education, such as the well-being of students, the quality of teaching and the conditions of schools. To solve this problem, we need to pay attention to both the numbers and people's opinions and work to improve all aspects of education.
