This thesis discusses the relationship between the processes of Knowledge Management (KM) and its impact on the performance on brazilian private and confessional basic education schools. From the theoretical point of view, it is based on the perspective of organizational analysis advocated by the Knowledge Based View (KVB). The central themes related to the work are articulated from there: Organizational Strategy, Organizational Performance, Processes and Models of KM Evaluation. With regard to organizational performance, the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) evaluation perspective was taken as the basis. In this way, the hypotheses of the thesis relate the impact of the four processes of GC - Creation, Storage, Sharing and Creation - in the perspectives of results of the BSC - People, Internal Processes, Clients and Sustainability - besides verifying the correlation between these constructs. The study is based on a positivist view of science and as a method, the multi-method approach was chosen sequentially with the development of a qualitative and a quantitative phase. In the first stage, semi-structured interviews were conducted with six school managers from Brazil and Spain to understand how the subject of KM and organizational performance in the field. With the results of the qualitative phase the quantitative phase of the research was carried out by applying a questionnaire with 50 items, from already used and validated scales, exploring the eight constructs of the hypotheses. The survey collected 242 responses, which were used for the development of the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique. The proposed theoretical model was verified from the relationships and the study of paths. As a result, it was possible to verify the influence of KM processes on the BSC dimensions of educational organizations. The influence of KM processes on the organizational performance of schools has been evident, since all processes in some way impact the organizational results dimensions. It was possible to verify the role that the creation of knowledge exerts on the people in the organization, and also how the storage of knowledge impacts the perspectives of people, internal processes and sustainability. As an academic contribution, the study relate two topics that have not been tested yet in the field of private and confessional basic education and opens up space for managerial implications, since it can contribute to educational managers improving their KM practices and achieving better performance in environmental processes educational.
