Innovation

However, the use of iPads is at the forefront as a tool for searching for knowledge. We were pioneers in introducing them in classrooms. Starting in year 5 of Primary, each of our students has their own in class.  And, most importantly, they contain their digital textbooks that were created by school teachers themselves. This is unique among all Spanish schools.

In Preschool they have also started to use tablets in class so that their learning is maximised using both our own applications and external ones.

Starting in year 1 of Primary, the subject ‘Technology, Programming and Robotics’ has been introduced, so that our students develop and expand their technological competences from the earliest years and until they join the workforce.

Finally, we were also the first to start up a department to create graphic adventures. A total of 35 have been created through today.  They contain different educational contents for Preschool and Primary School. Meriting mention among them is ‘Gartu at Kindergarten’ which, in addition to being used in class, is sold on the App Store in 200 countries. 

This wonderful app was recognised outside the school walls with the FICOD Award for Innovation in 2008.
