Monitoring strategic planning of the physical education school of a federal university

Abstract

This study monitored and analyzed the achievement goals agreed under the Strategic Planning for Physical Education School at Federal University of Ouro Preto during 18 months of implementation. Fifteen semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 mentors and 3 student representatives. Content analysis was used, resulting in four categories: a) preliminary results obtained; b) instrument capabilities; c) barriers and confrontations; d) improvement proposals. Actions to achieve most goals had been initiated, but none was completed. The global pandemic context (COVID-19) had a significant impact on the results. The study monitored the management tool, considering the importance of implementing mechanisms for systematic evaluation of institutional performance indicators. It is expected that the perceived potential will be strengthened, barriers will be overcome, and proposals for improvement will be collectively discussed to develop the institution.
