Abstract

This article discusses the relationship between schools and the educational communities to which they belong. In the first part, the issue is framed and analysed considering the evolution of organizational models of the Portuguese
educational system; we also consider several contributions from research on the theme produced mainly in Portugal. The second part presents empirical data from a survey conducted throughout a questionnaire completed by all schools in the municipality of Almada. This survey corresponds to the exploratory stage of a Ph.D. research. The concluding note includes the systematization of the reflection produced in the article and points out future lines of research concerning the relationship between school and local communities.
