Franciscanes Sant Cugat

Linguistic Project

Our teaching language at school is catala. We guarantee, anyway, Spanish and English acquisition from Pre-school.

Physical Education is a subject taught in English from Year 1, giving continuity to psychomotricity from P3 done in English as well.

Besides, we teach Science in English from Year 1 up to Year 6, offering continuity to Laboratory in P5 taught is English, too.

We split the children into two different groups in order to guarantee, in small teams, the necessary attention to exploit the language properly.

Little language projects:

Gabarró Method, reading supervisors, Reading Zone, Children Narrative Awards coming from Sant Cugat City Council, Young Learners Exams from Cambridge...

Peer assistance

This methodology was implemented at our school some years ago. The students organise themselves in little teams in order to work together and to reach common goals and objectives. The interaction facilitates solidary relationships, respect towards different opinions and social skills development. At the same time, it brings out new learnings, repairs, consolidates and rebuilds acquired knowledge.

Emotional Education

Aware of emotions are not only important in Pre-school Education, but also in Primary Education, we work on a project called The Lem’s forest. We focus on the emotional competence using learning methodologies which are experiential, active and participative.

Solidarity

We encourage participation and colaboration with different organizations such as ‘Bank Food’, the solidary hot coco encounter, TV3 Marathon...

Sustainability

We are starting a project in order to make our school a sustainable place. We train our students to become driving forces towards change and make them able to act. We want them to be conscious of themselves, their environment and Nature limits and feel sensitive to find out ways to get a proper ecological development.

TAC Plan

We live in a society where the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have changed the social, economical and educational model. This is why we focus on TAC (Technologies for Learning and Knowledge) inside the educational context, in order the students use them as a tool, which will make their learning easier and according to their personal development.
