• Abstract:

  This paper is a report of the experience of a supervisor who works at a public school in the western border of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, with approximately 800 students enrolled. The report is qualitative in nature and covers topics such as school planning, challenges, skills, work autonomy, but mainly, the pedagogical practice in school supervision. For each of the topics mentioned, articles were sought that reference the report. Supervision is not yet a regulated profession, and therefore faces some obstacles in the performance of the function, such as lack of autonomy. However, it provides learning about school management and human resources. The report provides some examples of conditions for the success of the function and also explains that moments of pedagogical training are extremely rich in exchanging knowledge and strengthening the emotional bond between teachers and the management team. These actions are essential to stimulate the good progress of school planning, aiming at student learning and encouraging teachers to belong to the group/school, thus facilitating teaching practice and collaborating both in the teaching and learning of all school actors.
