How do you prepare a student for a global world from their early years through to university? At Casvi Villaviciosa, the answer lies in a coherent and purposeful educational project: the International Baccalaureate (IB) Continuum. A journey that connects all stages of education and prepares students to think, act and lead in an international environment.
EL CONTINUO DE PROGRAMAS DEL BACHILLERATO INTERNACIONAL COMO EJE EDUCATIVO
At Casvi Villaviciosa, education is not conceived as isolated stages, but as a journey of continuous learning, coherent and meaningful. A journey that accompanies the student from their early years until their entry to university. Always under the same pedagogical approach and the same international mindset.
This approach is reflected in the International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme Continuum —Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP) — and is the focus of the video “Casvi Villaviciosa: an IB journey from start to finish”.
A METHODOLOGY THAT GOES BEYOND ACQUIRING KNOWLEDGE
As explained in the video, the Casvi Villaviciosa educational project is not limited to the transmission of content. Our IB model focuses on inquiry, expression, representation and sharing. These are all fundamental pillars of an active methodology that encourages critical thinking and meaningful learning.
The student is not a passive recipient. They are the true protagonists of their educational process, accompanied by teachers a12> who act as guides and facilitators of learning.
EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION: LEARNING THROUGH INQUIRY AND CURIOSITY
The IB journey begins in Early Years Programme, when pupils take their first steps in learning through inquiry and investigation.
At this stage, the foundations of the IB mindset are laid: curiosity, autonomy and a desire to discover. The educational environment is carefully designed so that each experience is meaningful and learning always stems from the children’s own interests and questions.
PEP AND PAI: LEARNING TO THINK, DO AND CONNECT WITH THE REAL WORLD
Throughout the Programme of the Primary School (PYP) and the Programme of the Intermediate Years (MYP), knowledge is built through transdisciplinary projects that connect what has been learned in the classroom with the reality that surrounds the student.
This approach enables students to:
- Develop critical thinking
- Learn to research and analyse
- Apply your knowledge to solve real-world problems.
In this way, learning becomes meaningful and useful. It also prepares students to understand and act in an increasingly complex world.
DIPLOMA PROGRAMME: PREPARED FOR UNIVERSITY AND PROFESSIONAL CHALLENGES
The programme culminates in the Diploma Programme (DP). This is a key stage in which students consolidate everything they have learned and prepare to successfully face university and professional challenges, both in Spain and anywhere else in the world.
Upon completing their studies at Casvi Villaviciosa, students stand out for:
- His global mindset
- Your capacity for innovation
- His entrepreneurial spirit
- His commitment and intellectual curiosity
They are young people prepared for the future. With solid values and an open mind that drives them to become leaders in an ever-changing environment.
THE VOICE OF FORMER STUDENTS: THE VALUE OF THE IB BEYOND SCHOOL
