Educational project
La Salle's educational project
At La Salle we have a pedagogical style focused on the person and their human and intellectual development. Our educational project is based on four fundamental pillars:
Attention
Personalized
Innovative pedagogical style
Education
in values
Technological and practical learning
New Learning Context
The New Learning Context (NCA) is a pedagogical and pastoral framework, with its own identity, which presents a clear organizational, methodological and evaluative proposal, which gives full meaning to the education of the person by comprehensively addressing its emotional, cognitive, bodily, social or spiritual dimensions, in the course of the different stages of its development. The student becomes the protagonist of his own learning.
The inner life is important, which is why we care about developing the human quality that unites spirituality and personality.
Spaces and movement are essential in cognitive development. We break with the traditional classroom, promoting creativity and learning.
Thinking can be educated and the school must encourage moments of individual and collective reflection.
The student generates independent learning habits and the school helps to build natural and individual learning processes as a non-transferable experience.
We learn to be respectful of others and to enrich ourselves by participating in social and cultural practices.
Own character
The Personal Character includes our main identity traits, where our desire to improve society through education is expressed and where the principles that give meaning to our mission as educators are included . It aims to be, above all, an invitation for the entire Educational Community to feel involved in the education of children and young people.
- At the service of the person. The La Salle Center is an area of learning and development of people, of all their creative potential, both in their individual and social dimensions. Educators exercise their mediating role between the student and learning, facilitating the acquisition of basic skills and knowledge, procedures and attitudes for their harmonious development, and responsible and critical incorporation into society .
- With a proposal of Values. The Educational Community encourages students to adopt a positive, free and determined attitude towards our proposed values, so that they can guide their lives with full meaning.
