SUPERVISION FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF STRENGTHENING SCHOOL MANAGEMENT

Abstract

This article, based on a qualitative research based on literature review and content analysis, investigated the role of the educational supervisor in strengthening democratic school management. The results indicate that the supervisor acts as an agent of transformation and continuous improvement, going beyond the merely supervisory function. Its work involves the promotion of a collaborative environment, conflict mediation, encouragement of continuing teacher training and support for the construction of innovative solutions to the school's challenges. In addition, its ability to articulate partnerships with other education professionals and the community stands out, expanding learning opportunities and strengthening the ties between school and society. It is concluded that the supervisor is a strategic and indispensable actor for the consolidation of a democratic, participatory school committed to the quality of teaching.
