The choice of this research line is justified by the involvement of the researcher with the management within the Metropolitan Region VII and the practices related to school leadership, noting the need to invest in training to facilitate the continuing education of managers, such the acquisition of new management skills in order to invest in higher academic performance of students entered in education in that region. The importance of this research lies in the possibility of increasing the quality of school practices from the leadership training profiles able to redirect school activities and provide better development indices. With regard to methodological aspects, there was a bibliographical study and a case study in two schools of the Metropolitan Region VII. It is a qualitative research and case study performed from conducting interviews with two school managers and the use of questionnaires to teachers and monitoring agents of school management AAGE. It presents an educational action plan covering the training sessions to train managers in the Metropolitan Region VII in order to subsidize them to acquire school management skills, which will require the monitoring and evaluation of GIDE, in order to present results in the short, medium or long term about the relevance of the training. It is expected that the participants of these trainings are aware about the training needs in management and leadership and they can broaden their knowledge in order to know how to deal with the new school challenges, specifically those covering the taking of decisions based on strategic capacity, leadership and creativity. The survey results show that the manager profile is one of the aspects that can characterize the school's identity in terms of school development indices, this because the leader with the profile whose skills such as creativity, leadership and strategic vision, can change the school reality, inserted teachers and students in different contexts with regard to the learning process.
