dc.description.en-US.fl_txt_mv This article reviews the existing literature and empirical evidence based on impact evaluation studies (randomized control trials) on the importance of the principals' role in educational improvement. However, given the small number of studies, many questions remain unanswered. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the debate and discussion about the role of school principals and how to strengthen their capacity to perform. It is based on the premise that school principals' training policy is justified by understanding that the principal is the second factor that significantly impacts student learning. Thus, by strengthening the capacity of these actors, improvements would be achieved in the educational process, learning, and quality of education. Unfortunately, the literature on this subject is scandalously scarce, particularly regarding studies that allow establishing attribution. Therefore, it is recommended that more studies be promoted to identify the most effective factors in improving the quality of school principals and the quality results among their students.
dc.description.es-ES.fl_txt_mv El presente artículo presenta una revisión de la literatura y de la evidencia empírica basada en estudios de evaluación de impacto (ensayos de control aleatorios) sobre la importancia del rol directivo escolar para la mejora educativa. Dado el pequeño número de estudios, aún existen muchas preguntas por responder, por lo que la finalidad de este documento es contribuir a la reflexión y al diálogo sobre el papel del director escolar y sobre cómo fortalecer su capacidad para que desempeñe sus funciones. Se parte de la premisa de que la política de capacitar a los directores de colegios se justifica al entender que el director es el segundo factor que mayor incidencia tiene sobre los aprendizajes de los estudiantes. De esta manera, al fortalecer la capacidad de estos actores se lograrían mejoras en el proceso educativo, en los aprendizajes y en la calidad de la educación. La literatura sobre este tema es escandalosamente escasa, en particular cuando se trata de estudios que permitan establecer atribución. Es recomendable, por lo tanto, que se fomenten más estudios que permitan identificar los factores más efectivos en mejorar la calidad de los directores de escuelas y de los resultados de calidad entre los alumnos de las mismas.
dc.description.pt-BR.fl_txt_mv Este artigo apresenta uma revisão da literatura e das empíricas baseadas em estudos de avaliação de impacto (ensaios controlados randomizados) sobre a importância do papel do gestor escolar para a melhoria educacional. Dado o pequeno número de estudos, ainda há muitas perguntas sem resposta, por isso o objetivo deste documento é contribuir para a reflexão e o diálogo sobre o papel do gestor da escola e como fortalecer sua capacidade de exercer suas funções. Parte-se da premissa de que a política de formação de gestores se justifica por entender que eles são o segundo fator de maior incidência na aprendizagem dos alunos. Dessa forma, fortalecendo a capacidade desses atores, seriam alcançadas melhorias no processo educacional, na aprendizagem e na qualidade da educação. A literatura sobre este assunto é escandalosamente escassa, principalmente quando se trata de estudos que permitem estabelecer atribuição. Portanto, recomenda-se que mais estudos sejam promovidos para identificar os fatores mais eficazes na melhoria da qualidade dos gestores da escola e dos resultados de qualidade entre seus alunos.
