Formação de mentoria de diretores: concepção, seleção e aplicabilidade

Abstract

The objective of this article is to present how the Departments of Education of states and municipalities can understand the design, selection and applicability of the Mentoring Training for School Directors offered by the Federal University of São Carlos, with a practical, systematized and institutional proposal. This study becomes fundamental, since this experience is considered unprecedented in Brazil - at least with regard to a systematized and institutional form. With the study, it was concluded that directors acquire knowledge by sharing experiences in the collective, and appropriate these learnings individually. It is urgent to establish new debates around the training of education professionals, as there are many who feel alone, in the most different school contexts and seek ways out of increasingly disturbing situations, with old questions and problems that have not yet been resolved.
