Methodologically, this is a qualitative-quantitative research, whose instruments of analysis are the minutes of the meetings of Municipal Council of Education of Fortaleza that took place in the triennium 2014-2016. It concludes from the documents and data obtained through the UNCME, that although it is still an imperfect instrument – considering that there are institutional problems for its installation, action and action , the council consists of a public space for social control and management (democracy in the liberal conception) and becomes an embryo for a collegial management, in which an articulation with the interests of the community is possible.
