Primary: Teaching Learning Process
We transform the teaching process. Our students are the protagonists of their learning. Through discovery, exploration and organization, they develop key skills with the support of their teachers, who act as guides in their educational journey.
We apply active methodologies because we believe that children learn best when they participate directly in their learning process. This allows them to strengthen essential skills such as creativity and communication from an early age.
In addition, we accompany their development in a comprehensive manner, paying special attention to their emotional, social, physical and cultural needs, ensuring their balanced and meaningful growth.
In Primary, our students constantly develop their critical thinking and problem-solving skills, acquiring the ability to express increasingly complex ideas and feelings in both English and Spanish.
This stage is developed from 6 to 12 years old and comprises 6 academic years and three cycles or educational stages. It comprises three cycles of two years each:
Initial cycle
from 6 to 8 years old (1st and 2nd)
Middle cycle
from 8 to 10 years old (3rd and 4th)
Upper cycle
from 10 to 12 years old (5th and 6th)
The sessions are designed with a practical and curiosity-based approach, “learning by doing”, allowing children to learn in a creative and fun way through the real application of the contents, leaving behind traditional approaches. Project-based learning is present in all subjects.
In addition, we integrate digital resources in the classroom to make learning more dynamic and attractive. We have Chromebooks, and starting in 3rd grade we introduce the subject of Technology, Programming and Robotics (TPR), preparing our students for the challenges of the future.
From 1st grade onwards, we introduce the teaching of a third language: French.
