O presente trabalho de investigação foi desenvolvido no âmbito curso de Mestrado de Administração e Gestão Educacional da Universidade Aberta com o título “O impacto das lideranças escolares nas práticas educativas do sistema prisional. Estudo de Caso numa escola secundária”. Reconhecendo que um dos aspetos importantes para a inclusão social dos sujeitos após reclusão é a melhoria das suas qualificações, a presente investigação teve como foco o impacto das diretrizes das lideranças escolares de uma escola secundária na educação escolar dos reclusos de um estabelecimento prisional regional da sua área geográfica. Foram definidos cinco objetivos de investigação nos quais se procurou identificar a natureza da relação institucional entre o estabelecimento prisional regional e a escola secundária da sua área geográfica; identificar a articulação do projeto educativo do estabelecimento prisional regional e o projeto educativo da escola secundária da sua área geográfica; caracterizar a educação escolar do ensino secundário desenvolvida no estabelecimento prisional regional pela escola secundária da sua área geográfica; identificar os desafios e as limitações impostas às orientações educativas das lideranças escolares da escola secundária no estabelecimento prisional regional da sua área geográfica e indicar recomendações com vista à melhoria da qualidade do serviço educativo prestado aos reclusos de um estabelecimento prisional regional, da responsabilidade das lideranças escolares da escola secundária da sua área geográfica.
Nesta investigação optámos por um estudo de caso cujo propósito foi a descrição e a interpretação de uma realidade particular. Para o seu cumprimento elegemos uma metodologia mista, a qual abrangeu métodos qualitativos tais como o inquérito por entrevista semiestruturada e a pesquisa documental, bem como métodos quantitativos que englobaram um inquérito por questionário fechado.
As principais conclusões deste estudo centradas no impacto das orientações das lideranças escolares da escola secundária concretizam-se: num adequado plano de formação contínua docente; no auxílio em termos materiais ao serviço educativo na prisão; na promoção do trabalho colaborativo com a direção do estabelecimento prisional regional e com todos os outros intervenientes neste processo. Contudo, a intenção e a ação das lideranças escolares não se encontram aclaradas nos documentos orientadores da escola secundária, não tendo a educação em contexto prisional o devido destaque.
This dissertation is part of a larger project developed within the scope of the Masters’ Programme in Administration and Educational Management of the Open University on the theme "The impact of school leadership on the educational practices of the prison system”. Arguing that the improvement of the inmates’ qualifications is one of the major aspects for the social inclusion of the subjects after confinement, this dissertation is focused on the impact of the directives of the leadership of a secondary school in the school education of prisoners of a regional prison within its geographical area. Subsequently, five specific research objectives are pinpointed as they outline the nature of the institutional relationship between the regional prison and the secondary school in its geographical area: identifying the articulation of the educational project of the regional prison and the educational project of the secondary school in its geographical area; characterizing the secondary school education developed at the regional prison by the secondary school in its geographical area; identifying the challenges and constraints imposed on the educational guidelines of secondary school leaders in the regional prison in their geographical area; and indicating recommendations to improve the quality of the educational service offered to inmates of a regional prison institution under the responsibility of school leaders secondary school in their geographical area. This research consists of a case study whose purpose is to describe and interpret a particular reality. For its compliance, we decided to apply a mixed methodology, which includes the qualitative methods semi-structured interview survey and the documentary research, and quantitative methods that include a closed questionnaire survey. In this dissertation we expand and discuss the main conclusions of this study centred on the impact of the orientations of secondary school leadership. Such an impact is materialized as follows: an adequate plan of continuous teacher training for the teachers who teach at regional prisons; material aid for the educational service in prisons; promoting collaborative work with the management of the regional prison and with all the other players in this process. However, the intention and action of school leaders are not found in the guiding documents of the secondary school, with no education in prison context due to the emphasis.
