Abstract

The main objective of the present work is to analyze the actions developed by the director of the Eduardo Mondlane Secondary School since the emergence of COVID – 19. In accordance with the proposed objectives, a study was created that integrates the qualitative approach, and the technique of interview and questionnaire for data collection. In turn, the research was possible through an interview directed to the Managers of Eduardo Mondlane Secondary School and a questionnaire directed to the teachers. Thus, 13 informants participated in this research, including 7 professors, 3 deputy directors, administrative, head of the secretariat and the director of ESEM. These informants were chosen for convenience. The analysis and interpretation of the data showed that the Eduardo Mondlane Secondary School has had difficulties in management since the outbreak of the COVID – 19 pandemic, and the lack of means and financial conditions to carry out the activities stands out. As well as the lack of classrooms for classes of 20-25 students, since the number of students per class had to be reduced, the other obvious difficulty, the cleaning workers are not enough with regard to hygiene in the face of the pandemic da COVID – 19. Thus, the study recommends that managers analyze the processes critically, in order to provide an institutional assessment, which will consequently be transformed into changes to improve the quality of management at ESM
