This research integrate the line of research named “Theories and Cultures in Education”, of the Graduate Program in Education of the Pontifícia Universidade Católica of Rio Grande do Sul - PUCRS. The research problem/question aims to understand how ecological practices are related to innovation in education, in a general way and, specifically, in the schools of the "Map of Innovation and Creativity in Basic Education" from the Ministry of Education (BRASIL, 2015) in São Paulo/SP. The specific questions are: how does this public policy understand innovation in education; what are the perspectives of the schools selected for the Map regarding their practices; how does the innovative character point to the position of "environmental" indicators such as sustainability and ecology. The general objective is to investigate how the relationships between educational innovation and ecological practices are experienced in the schools of the Map of Innovation and Creativity in Basic Education in the city of São Paulo/SP. The specific objectives of the research are: a) to describe how the conception of innovation is transposed from the corporate field to that of education; b) analyze the criteria used by the Evaluation Committee of the MEC for the selection of innovative and creative schools; c) to observe the perspectives of the selected schools on their innovations and how they articulate them in their daily life; d) identify the presence/ absence of an environmental approach in these institutions, describing their particularities. The theoretical framework dialogues with the concepts of innovation and education as they emerge in the literature, but, mainly, how they are received and re-signified from the empirical field. The methodology used includes documentary analysis and participant observation. As ethical care, it was used a letter of presentation directed to the school and verbal consent of the people contacted, obtained by telephone. The identity of schools and interlocutors has been preserved. Results: it was possible to identify different relationships between education, innovation and ecology in the schools studied. From the recurrent themes that emerged from empirical research, nine categories of analysis were generated. Of these categories, a new division into three major groups proposes an integrated view of schools and their interactions with the central themes of the research.
