Aiguamarina School is a public school which is financed with public funds from the Education Department of La Generalitat. It is set in Nou Barris, Barcelona. In our district there are many public schools and private schools with public funding.
The school is quite small. It is provided with three years of kindergarten and six of Primary Education. There is one class in each grade and the ratio is between 23-26 students per class. The mother tongue in the school is Catalan and all the lessons are taught in Catalan apart from Spanish, the English subject, Arts and Crafts and some workshops. The school day goes from 9:00 to 12:30 and from 15:00 to 16:30.
It is needed a good coordination with the teaching team and, for the school, it is important to keep a good relationship with the families with the purpose of giving to children the best integral and harmonic education.
The Faculty and the Management team of the school work together to promote and modernise the school in all its scopes.
There is some cultural diversity in its school area, most of the people speak Spanish and other languages as their mother tongue.
We have started implementing CLIL methodologies in Art classes with our Elementary classmates but we have also incorporated some English workshops.
