Personalised
teaching is the basis of our pedagogical programme.
An individual assessment of each student allows us to
provide personalised teaching, taking into consideration
the personality, individual abilities and differences
of our students.
The primary school has an obligatory full day bilingual
programme. This programme is developed as a dual language
enriched education programme where spanish and english
are articulated. The objective is that students cognitive
capacitites are developed to their maximum. Interested
parents may obtain the sylllabus from the school secretary's
office.

SAN
JOAQUIN SCHOOL IS A MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATION OF BILINGUAL
SCHOOLS (A.Co.Bi)
In
the first year of the Primary School the reading and
writing programmes in both languages are based on a psychogenesis
approach.
Both boys and girls attend computer classes from the
first year of Primary School and the programme is intimately
connected to the topics of each class.
All students have physical education during the morning
and sports during the afternoon. Students also have
art and music classes in both languages.
The
study plans of each subject are sent home to parents
on a monthly basis and regular meetings are held to
discuss specific objectives for each group.
We
organise programmed outings on a monthly basis to museums,
plays, musicals or we invite organized shows to our
school. These outings are taken advantage off, not only
for their cultural relevance but also for their social
and recreational significance. Both the theatre and
musical shows offer plays in English. Student's work
in class with material specifically designed, before
and after the outing to make the most of the experience.
Today it is important that students are prepared with
resources and strategies so that they may confront any
situations they may find themselves in. A second language
in this respect is fundamental and even more so when
we are talking about the English language.
