This article is an excerpt from a survey conducted in public education city of Maceió. We investigated whether participation in democratic management scenario, from the point of view of parents and students. The democratic management was implemented in this city in 1993, three years before the LDBEN No. 9394/96. The central concern was configured to identify whether parents and students could feel the participants democratization of school management. Hence, we studied: Libâneo (2004), Gadotti (2002), Paro (2001), Hora (2007) and Tavares (2003) to support the categories “democratic management” and “participation”. The methodological approach is qualitative basis, which used the technique of focus groups with students and parents. These demonstrated the few opportunities for participation offered, emphasizing the meetings in which their participation is limited to the condition of listeners. The subjects lament the inertia of families facing the problems the school faces. To structure effect, the text has two parts: 1) the historicity of democratic management, its principles and foundations on which the authors cover the subject comprehensively, and 2) an account of how was the research: the subjects and the main procedures adopted and the analysis presented.
