Resumen

Esta ponencia es parte de una investigación internacional referente a la capacitación de directores de escuela. Esta reseña inicial plantea a México dentro del contexto de una política reciente y del movimiento internacional para identificar las competencias necesarias para el liderazgo en la educación. Se presta atención especial al poder del sindicato de maestros, a los fondos monetarios destinados para la educación, y a la función del supervisor. Se plantean las siguientes preguntas: ¿Cuáles son las políticas del gobierno central? ¿Cuáles son algunas de las presunciones fundamentales que parecen estar guiando estas políticas? ¿Cuáles son los intereses que se benefician de este enfoque? ¿Cuáles son las fortalezas y debilidades de la educación en México? ¿Cuáles son los puntos críticos que se deben de abordar en la administración educativa?
