The last enabled one month training abroad. In 2017, 24 students 4 teachers went to Spain, UK, Finland and Germany . In 2018, 19 students and 3 teachers went to Finland, UK, Spain and France. In 2019, 24 students and 6 teachers went on KA2 mobilities to Spain and France. We hosted 10 teachers in KA1 staff’s mobilities and 28 teachers in KA2 Staff’s mobilities.
Since 2017 we have turned the school curricula into project based learning. Up to 25% of our curricula is organized in time blocks where students work in mixed groups of different years, supervised by teachers from different areas, crossing competences, skills and profiles. Students learn to work cooperatively, through peer-to-peer strategies which enable them to use their autonomy, as well as their responsibility. They also have to improve their critical thinking because evaluation is done along the process making them more aware of their outcomes, strengths and weaknesses.

On the other hand, School has developed strategies to help students with learning disabilities to improve their performance and skills. Concerned with climate change and the preservation of natural resources we have been developing several activities in order to change the mindset of our students to the priority of prevention and protection of our forests and oceans. Students have been challenged to present proposals that can make a difference and thus prepare them to be more aware of the situation globally and act locally.
