READING PROGRAMME

This school year we have set up a new programme to improve our students' reading skills. Half an hour every day is devoted to reading, guided reading and other activities to improve speed, concentration, comprehension and so on. We also try to promote good reading habits from all subjects, so different types of texts, articles are also read and discussed.

cybermentors

Volunteer 3rd ESO students are formed, trained and tutored so that they can give support and training to their fellow 1st ESO students in the good use of technology and social media. The work methodology for this training is based for on a learning strategy that uses resources such as video games, videos, and animations to help students identify, reflect and react to various risks posed by ICTs. With this, they acquire guidelines and behaviors to prevent harassment through social networks.

DIGITALIZATION

All classrooms are equipped with computers and smartboards. There is also a good Internet connection thanks to fiber optics technology. Our students own a Chromebook device and we use G-Suite tools and share an iesporreres.cat domain. Those students who can't afford to buy thir own Chromebook get support from the school and the regional education board to get one on loan.

Our school is small, but we have fantastic facilities.
