Subsidised Lower Secondary School in Sarrià, Barcelona
Learning to think and learning to learn at a time of profound changes in life.
LOWER SECONDARY
We accompany pupils in their ongoing progress.
We support pupils in building a strong scale of values that will enable them to make their first decisions in the academic and relational fields and provide them with a solid foundation of skills.
The step from childhood to youth becomes a time of uncertainty, discoveries, conflicts and decision-making. Through this process, working on self-knowledge and introspection helps pupils to grow in a holistic and harmonious way as a team player. In this process they discover their own competences, values, skills and learn what they feel compelled to be and to do.
How do we implement our Horitzó+ educational project?
We assist adolescents in this stage of change and transformation from childhood to youth. We foster students’ manifold talents with personalised attention that accompanies them throughout this maturation process. We foster learning with meaning and personal value, encouraging self-knowledge, understanding of the reality that surrounds them and their ability to act in favour of the common good.
Our teaching team
A team of professionals to accompany them during this period of change.
We accompany, plan and assess jointly inside and outside the classroom: tutoring team, specialists, psycho-pedagogues, English and French conversation assistants, technical staff, management, monitoring team, etc.
