Escola Gavina 

escolagavina  is a space and a time to help people grow up in a wide sense.  A space and a time of meaningful stimuli and experiences that lead students to a whole formation in human values, habits and knowledge.  A space and a time to live together and make students feel the curiosity for learning, to help them to develop social and intellectual competences in cooperation with their mates.  escolagavina has been, since 1975, an education cooperative, formed essentially by teachers and administration and services staff, that shares an educational project with the students’ families. Nowadays it is a small school of three hundred and fifty students, from 3 to 16 years old, however it’s a centre of reference in Valencian Educational world. The educational work focuses on the development of the students’ personality within the axes of an open and critical attitude.  Those aspects, together with innovation, experimentation, work, learner-centred methodology, internationality, permanent communication, friendship… make escolagavina’s identity card.  We are a compromised school with our particular linguistic and cultural reality in the Valencian Country. For that reason, the school communication language is Catalan.
