The municipal educational plans (PEM) are decision instruments that guide the educational action of educational institutions and ensure that the teaching - learning process are be in a quality system. According to international guidelines and Colombian regulations, all municipalities must have PEM that are relevant to the complex realities of each territory and respond to the educational needs of context. However, the literature review shows that the implementation of PEM in Colombia is low, an example is the Municipality of Chia that despite its socio-educational changes in recent years does not have a PEM. The objective of the research is to design a structural proposal of the Educational Plan for the municipality of Chia that is inclusive, participatory and relevant to the socio-educational needs of the municipality and the national guidelines.
