On February 18th and 19th, we welcomed six Danish teachers who came to learn more about our adult language teaching model, following their initial visit last October.

In the classroom, they shared experiences with our students and were able to observe our commitment to inclusive education firsthand, adapted to the diversity of ages, backgrounds, learning paces, and profiles. The connections created with the students were especially enriching and inspiring for everyone involved.

The experience extended beyond the classroom with a comprehensive cultural tour of our region. On Wednesday, they explored the Medieval Quarter of Bocairent with a local guide, captivated by its heritage, and also visited ‘El Angosto’ winery 🍇 in Ontinyent, where they learned about the characteristics of the land, climate, and crops that define our region.

On Thursday, they immersed themselves in the essence of the Moors and Christians festival by attending the children’s Mid-Year Parade, experiencing firsthand the music and passion that define us. They also enjoyed a session with English students at Casa del Delme and delved deeper into our history with a guided tour in English of Vila Palace and the air-raid shelter.

A week full of shared learning, culture, local traditions, and beauty that will continue in April when our teachers and students travel to Denmark as part of the Erasmus+ programme. 🇪🇺

Education connects people. Languages connect cultures. See you in Copenhagen in April, friends!

The Erasmus+ mobility in Ireland became an unforgettable experience for both students and teachers. During an intense and enriching week, participants immersed themselves in a journey of cultural discovery, historical reflection and European connection.

From November 15 to 21, the group explored the Gaelic region of Donegal, discovering the richness of the Irish language and culture, while also gaining a deeper understanding of recent history through the study of the Spanish conflict and the Peace Process in Derry and Belfast.

Some of the most moving moments included the visit to Gaelscoil Éadain Mhóir, where all subjects are taught in Gaelic, the powerful Bloody Sunday tour led by a relative of one of the victims, and the close contact with local music and traditions, which brought Irish culture vividly to life.

The experience came to an end in Belfast, surrounded by a warm Christmas atmosphere that provided the perfect setting for meaningful intercultural exchange and the strengthening of bonds between European students.

This mobility, which beautifully combined learning, shared experiences and cultural exchange, has left a lasting impression on everyone involved.

Good morning everyone!

I want to tell you about my Erasmus experience in Dublin. In August 2023 I spent time there thanks to the Erasmus+ programme. In Dublin, I was able to learn new methodological and didactic techniques related to language teaching, and not only that, I made contact with other professionals from all over Europe!

This way, when I came back, I was able to put everything I had learned into practice in the classroom. My goal is to motivate students and show them that learning a foreign language is not only easy, but also fun. It was a fantastic experience!

From November 12th to 19th, our colleague Marta completed an Erasmus+ stay in Vantaa, Finland, at the Mercuria school. There, she visited a vocational and adult education centre, where she was able to observe the way of working in this country, ranked first in education worldwide. She also received specific training on the education system and the methodologies used. This is what she tells us 🧏🏻:

«Hello! Thanks to our Erasmus+ project, I had the opportunity to travel to Finland and see how other European centres work. The experience was very enriching because I was able to learn not only from my Finnish colleagues, but also from the students. I felt very well supported and guided thanks to their warm welcome. Furthermore, it opened the doors to future student exchanges, which is our ultimate goal with this Erasmus+ project. Quite an experience! 👏🏽»

Stay tuned for more news, this is just the beginning!

Hello everyone!

Our colleague Marta was in Cork, Ireland 🇮🇪, from July 15th to 19th, visiting the University of Cork where she observed how English classes are taught at different levels, from A2 to C2. The observation also included Academic English and Business English classes. She was also able to compare the differences and similarities between Irish and Valencian, as minority languages, at the academic and institutional levels.

She also thoroughly enjoyed the international atmosphere at a fair where students from different countries took center stage and took the opportunity to ask about their customs and traditions.

As you can see, Erasmus+ 🇪🇺 projects are a great opportunity for teachers to take new ideas and bring them into our classrooms.

We continue developing our great little project with enthusiasm!

Our colleague Maria travelled to Palermo from September 22nd to 26th to participate in a training and cooperation activity on diversity and inclusion (TCA: ‘Inclusion for Newcomers in Erasmus+’), attended by a total of 67 teachers from 18 European countries.

Over the course of four days of work, Maria was able to network with other European participants with similar concerns and needs in the area of ​​inclusion, and she gained many ideas for our school, which aims to be an open and inclusive center capable of responding to all the needs that are identified.

Some proposals for cooperation with European partners have emerged, and Maria will follow up on them to continue improving and learning in the future.
