Jesuïtes Gràcia – Colegio Kostka
Jesuitas Gracia-Colegio Kostka is a school that was born more than 75 years ago and belongs to the Jesuit Education Network, which brings together 8 schools of the Society of Jesus in Catalonia.
Located and rooted in La Salut district, in the district of Gracia, the Kostka brings together a strong pedagogical tradition while looking towards the future: pedagogical innovation, social justice, ecological dimension, Ignatian spirituality and global citizenship, with the conviction that only this way then can we educate women and men for others.
To guarantee the proximity and welcome of families and students, the Kostka, despite being a large school, is distributed in three small schools: Infant School, which brings together students from 0 to 9 years old, Intermediate School, students from 10 to 14 years old and High School with students from 15 to 18 years.
The year 2014 began the pilot experience of the MOPI (pedagogical model of Infant) and, currently, we are already implementing the PIN (Initial Primary) until third grade, the NEI (New intermediate stage) in the 5th and 6th courses. Primary and TQE to ESO 3.
The essential points of the project are:
- The student is the protagonist of his/her learning process
- The involvement of families in the learning process
- Boosting project work
- Teamwork and collaborative students and teachers
- Dynamic evaluation of processes and results
- Transversal integration of Ignatian values and spirituality
- Multipurpose spaces and diverse resources that allow creating new links and learning
