This dissertation, developed within the scope of the Professional Master's Degree in Education Management and Evaluation (PPGP) of the Center for Public Policies and Evaluation of Education of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (CAEd/UFJF), has as a research question: How the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC) and the Reference Curriculum of Minas Gerais (CRMG) are approached in the teaching of English Language at the Maria Auxiliadora Alves State School of SEE/MG, And what strategies can contribute to its parameters being more significantly employed in the school, with a view to the development of pedagogical proposals? The general objective of the management case was to analyze the challenges faced in the implementation of the BNCC and CRMG in the teaching of English Language at the Maria Auxiliadora Alves State School, in addition to proposing pedagogical strategies that favor a more effective application of these guiding documents, in accordance with their guidelines. In order to organize and plan the research presented, the following specific objectives were delimited: to describe how the guidelines established by the BNCC and the CRMG are applied in the school context of the Maria Auxiliadora Alves State School for the teaching of English Language; to analyze the procedures adopted for the application of these documents in the teaching of English Language in school, as well as to propose pedagogical strategies that can promote the planned and effective use of these guiding documents. To contextualize the study, brief reports are presented on the historical evolution of English language teaching to the present day, in addition to an analysis of the approach to English language teaching both in the BNCC and in the CRMG, documents that guide education at the national and state levels, respectively. From this analysis, the work identifies the procedures adopted by the school's teachers in relation to the implementation of the BNCC and CRMG in English language teaching. The research methodology used involved semi-structured interviews with the principal, two supervisors and an effective English language teacher, in addition to a bibliographic review, which enabled the presentation, succinctly, of theoretical parameters about English language teaching and elements of pedagogical management. Among the challenges faced by teachers, both internal and external factors to the school stand out, such as the absence of in-depth training on the application of the BNCC, lack of specific continuing education for each curricular component, low motivation of teachers, scarcity of discussions on pedagogical practices, lack of planning of a calendar of external evaluations, high number of external evaluations applied, realization of the Intermittent Temporary Grouping project in the regular class hours, the accumulation of positions of effective teachers, the limitation in the workload of weekly classes and the learning difficulties of students. This study is not limited to the identification of the challenges faced, but, through the Educational Action Plan (PAE), proposes actions aimed at the continuous improvement of the students' learning process and the most effective organization in the application of the guiding documents.
