School Management and Intersectorality as a Strategy for Strengthening Comprehensive Education

Abstract

This article aims to discuss the importance of school management and intersectorality as fundamental strategies for strengthening comprehensive education within the context of contemporary educational policies. It is a bibliographic study based on authors such as Libâneo (2012), Paro (2018), Gadotti (2009), and Jacomini (2017), among others, who address democratic management, collaboration between sectors, and the comprehensive education of students. The research shows that comprehensive education requires a broader conception of school, capable of articulating actions between different public policies, such as health, social assistance, culture, agriculture, environment, and sports, promoting full human development. In this sense, school management assumes a central role in planning, coordinating, and articulating intersectoral projects that respond to the real needs of students and the community. It is observed that intersectorality strengthens the school as a space for promoting rights and social transformation, expanding opportunities for learning and coexistence. It is concluded that a management committed to intersectorality contributes significantly to the realization of comprehensive education, making the school environment more inclusive, participatory, and consistent with the principles of civic education.
