The management study case discusses how the Centro de Políticas Públicas e Avaliação da Educação of the Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (CAEd/UFJF, Center for Public Policy and Educational Evaluation), as an institution hired by the Goiás State Secretary of Education, can contribute for providing to Goiás education professionals recommendations able to make them improve even more eventual strengths and correct weaknesses in Mathematics teaching, based on statistical and pedagogical analyses done on High School 3rdgrade Mathematics items.
