Spanish term or phrase: sobre cumplimiento
Al mes 09 se han establecido 5 consejos escolares que a partir de este año serán formados en autogestión para los proyectos escolares. Existe un sobre cumplimiento según indicador de más del 100% esto debido a que se integraron satisfactoriamente mas consejos escolares de lo previsto quienes concluyeron un plan de capacitación en organización y gestión educativa.

I think "over-accomplishment" sounds too literal.

Any recommendation.

overachievement
Explanation:
Though this term is used a bit more often to describe a person (over-achiever/overachieving) rather than the deed itself, I think it would work here. I would NOT use "an" before it, though; simply "there has been overachievement..." (or you could rephrase as "overachievement has taken place," etc.).
Looks like it could be used with or without a hyphen (over-achievement) depending on preference.
