Education

STEAM

Steam

Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics

Steam

Scientific and technological disciplines offer broad academic and professional perspectives for our students. That is why in the College San Fernando We work on them from an early age, under an applied and interdisciplinary approach that is enhanced by the methodology of the International Baccalaureate throughout its different programs.

STEAM is the English acronym for the terms Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics, which encompasses the teaching of this type of knowledge in an eminently practical way. The students bring out all their creativity and imagination to solve the problems posed, resorting to everything learned in the different subjects, integrating their knowledge and generating all kinds of designs, prototypes and solutions.

At ESO we participate in the project MASSSTEAM (Asturian Women STEAM), an initiative of the CTIC Technology Center in collaboration with the Ministry of Science, Innovation and University, through the General Directorate of Innovation, Research and Digital Transformation, the promotion of FADE and public-private sponsorship, to promote female talent towards scientific and technological studies. A group of secondary school students from the center has actively participated in this project. Go to video.

SCIENCE

Laboratories

Secondary students are familiar with the analytical materials and techniques that they put into practice each week in laboratory sessions. Knowing the safety standards, labeling of reagents and different methodologies allows them to apply the scientific method by proposing hypotheses, processing data and drawing their own conclusions.

Experiences in the different Biology, Physics and Chemistry laboratories bring them closer and allow them to explain the phenomena of their daily lives. At the highest levels, the students of the Diploma Program carry out their own research working with materials as novel and with a wide projection for the future as graphene.

Olympics

The Olympics are one of the most important events that serve to detect, attract and arouse the curiosity and talent of the youngest in the world of science and technology. The school promotes the participation of our students in the Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry, Junior Scientist, Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Computer Science Olympiads, obtaining excellent results every year and, above all, those that have unforgettable experiences.

Greenhouse

The students have this space in a very accessible area where, from an early age, they become familiar with the sowing and cultivation of plants to which they give different uses: as a gift for Mother's Day, obtaining fruits and vegetables that They will serve as products and ingredients of the school menu (Restaurant, own kitchen) or to facilitate understanding and acquire skills within the units of inquiry in the subjects of knowledge of the environment and Biology and Geology. International Baccalaureate students, with the greenhouse, have the most suitable space in which to develop their research work.

Nature classroom

The breadth of outdoor spaces allows for an area as special as the Nature Classroom; a true forest within our school with a path that runs through its interior where students, surrounded by native trees, come into contact with nature.

start for the weather

The 3 ESO students participate in this Program in which they develop an Entrepreneurship Project that allows them to become aware of the importance of caring for the environment through the generation of entrepreneurial ideas. Its objective is to seek creativity based on the observation of their environment, detect an environmental problem or need, seek a viable and tangible solution and design the way to carry it out in their environment. go to video

TECHNOLOGY

Google

We are a "Google Reference School" center

In the 2018-2019 academic year, we became the first Google Reference School in Asturias. Google is a strategic ally of the center through its educational branch, Google for Education. Its open and collaborative culture is optimal for our work philosophy in the classrooms, facilitating the consultation, obtaining and exchange of resources among students.

The teaching staff had to be accredited by taking several level 1 and 2 courses, which facilitated the implementation of digital tools (G-Suite): Drive, Google Sites, Classroom, etc. In short, a package of productivity tools that help students and teachers to interact easily and safely from different devices.

In Compulsory Secondary Education and Baccalaureate courses, teaching departments have created blogs and Google Sites (web pages) to develop their own teaching units, thus largely replacing paper textbooks. Books have been replaced by electronic devices (Chromebook), seeking a more participatory system in which students can solve complex questions in a collaborative environment, where the sources of knowledge are no longer exclusively the teacher and the textbook.

Technological tools – Tablets, computers and Chromebooks

For years our center has been working with tablets from the first years of Primary Education, so that students can carry out their learning and inquiry process from different sources and learn to compare the ones they use.

From the 4th year of Primary Education, the tablets are replaced by computers that complement the resources and libraries of each classroom for their research work.

From the 6th grade of Primary Education, we work with Chromebook devices that, under a Google license, are designed for use in the educational field. Students work in the Google Academics environment, limited to the College's internal network, which guarantees its responsible use during the time the student is at the Center. The Chromebook has also led to the transition from the textbook to the digital book, promoting collaborative learning environments.

In order to achieve greater connectivity and to ensure that the teaching-learning process is not affected by 'technical issues', the center has been equipped with a powerful wireless network that allows all students to be working simultaneously without connection difficulties.

Participation in "The Hour of Code"

In Primary Education we participate in experiences such as The Hour of Code, a global initiative that celebrates computer science. It is an introductory computer science activity, and is designed to demystify "code," demonstrate that everyone can learn the basics, and broaden participation in the field of computer science. It also helps foster problem-solving skills, logic, and creativity.

MAY

OBY, the College's educational platform

The School has launched its own digital platform, OBY, which represents a comprehensive improvement in all areas of the educational process, especially in communication between the different levels of our educational community: students, families and teachers.

Parents and students can consult the academic record, calendars and schedules, grades, incidents that occur in real time, tasks to be done, Center documentation, information about schedules, messages from tutors, access to digital books (with the consequent savings) , etc. All these options are accessible through any device with internet access, directly on the web.

Sanfer Makers' Lab

In order to achieve greater application of the technological content given in the classrooms, a space of 225 m2 divided into two parts has been set up. The first one destined for a technology workshop with all the tools and technical advances on the market (3d printer, laser cutter, robotics and electronics equipment, Arduino boards, 3D vision glasses, Microbits, Flora kits for wearables, makerbots, etc) along with with more traditional tools.

A second section is used to carry out graphic design, as well as what is necessary to carry out projection mapping.

The use of the Sanfer Makers' Lab is integrated into the educational curriculum from ESO in subjects related to Design, Technology, Science, etc.

Maker's Club

The Makers' club is an extracurricular activity that takes place within the Sanfer Makers' lab. The purpose of the workshop is to unleash the creativity of our students so that through the challenges that are proposed to them, they develop projects that combine digital manufacturing and programming and that can be enjoyed by the entire educational community. It is conceived as a vertical workshop in which students of all levels of Secondary Education participate, so that some can draw on the skills of others as a Maker community.

Education

Teaching methodology

A Global Educational Project

We influence the individualization of learning, based on the idea that not all students learn in the same way. We stimulate the different capacities of the student, proposing the activities of the classroom attending to their multiple intelligences.

We favor access to the curriculum through ways that are not exclusively traditional linguistic or logical-mathematical. All this with the application of an Active and Participatory Methodology effective in all educational stages.

An IB World School

The School San Fernando is a IB World School, organization that has developed educational programs for students from 3 to 18 with more prestige and recognition at an international level.

From 2013 we impart the Diploma Program, aimed at 1st and 2nd year high school students. This degree is internationally recognized and allows access to the most prestigious Universities in the world.

Since 2021, the School has been an Authorized Center by the Organization

international Baccalaureate® to impart the Primary School Program (PEP), intended for students in Early Childhood Education from 3 to 5 years old, and from 1 to 6 years of Primary Education

Likewise, since 2020 the College San Fernando is an Authorized Center by the Organization international Baccalaureate® for the delivery of Middle Years Programme (MYP), program aimed at ESO students with the aim that students who have been trained in the PYP continue their studies in ESO with this teaching methodology.

Multiple Intelligences

It is of the utmost importance that we develop and nurture all human intelligences and all combinations of intelligences. We are all so different in part because we all have different combinations of intelligences. Howard Gardner

The traditional concept of intelligence as a unique feature of the personality (CI) has been replaced by a broader view of it and collected in the theory developed by Dr. Howard Gardner, of the University of Hardvard and Prince of Asturias Award of Social Sciences 2011, who defines at least 8 different types of intelligence: linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, musical, corporal, interpersonal, intrapersonal and naturalistic. Each of us possesses these forms of intelligence and develops them to a greater or lesser degree according to our own history or our culture.

The Multiple Intelligences create a structured path to identify and stimulate the innate potential of each individual, as well as to detect and prevent difficulties in those areas in which the student may need more help.

Based on the concept of Multiple Intelligences, the School offers all its students varied opportunities to experiment in each of the fields related to the eight intelligences.

Kindergarten

Kindergarten

Early schooling improves future school performance

An innovative Infantile Education in pedagogical techniques with an Early Learning, that we carry out in facilities adapted to the needs of our students.

The purpose of early childhood education is to contribute to the physical, emotional, social and intellectual development of girls and boys. It facilitates that they develop a positive and balanced image of themselves, acquire personal autonomy, learn to respect norms and fulfill their obligations, and increase their affective capacities.

Objectives

In our center we offer the two cycles of Early Childhood Education:

  • First cycle: From 4 months to 2 years of age.
  • Second Cycle (concerted): From 3 to 5 years of age.

   Schedule

To reconcile work and family life, the Early Childhood Education Center adapts to the working calendar of parents

Schedule

Child Education. 0-3 years cycle

Classrooms 0 and 1 year

In the period from 0 to 2 years we work the early stimulation, following among others, the methodological line of Maria Montessori and Glenn Doman. We start from the need to develop the sensory and motor aspects as the main approach to the intelligences of children, incorporating the braking ladders at all levels.

We have created a sensory stimulation classroom where we can work on the motor and sensory aspects as a fundamental way of approaching the intelligences of children. In these ages, learning is mainly sensorimotor and therefore, any stimulation starts from the base of the movement.

We do not forget the Cognitive stimulation, which among other methodologies is carried out through the Intelligence bits, develop and expand the neural connections that will facilitate school learning later.

Infant Education 2 years

In two years we followed the Montessori methodology and the model of Schools Reggio Emilia, bringing learning closer to students' daily life, starting from real situations and materials that guide them towards knowledge, with wide spaces that differ from the usual concept of a classroom.

Directed by their teachers, through play and imagination, children enjoy learning and discovering the world around them.

The space is the third teacher. An 150m classroom has been designed2 that simulates a city, where the establishments and the most habitual professions appear.

They are incorporated in corners and the work is distributed among them.

El Creative Atelier It is a workshop where textures, colors, flavors are experimented with and the first approaches to the scientific method are made.

The corners in our city

The city

The whole space is designed as a city, our city, that brings children closer to their immediate surroundings, identifying the establishments by their function, and learning to move in this space with respect. Recognizing a traffic light, knowing how to stop at a zebra crossing is the beginning of your experience with Road Safety Education.
Health area

The doctor allows us to know the parts of the body, talk about the protection of health and how to avoid diseases. We are familiar with its "instruments" to allow then to make use of health services without fear. Identifying animals, learning to respect them and taking care of them is another objective of this corner.
Music and the Theater

Performing arts are the ideal means to express and recognize emotions, develop the aesthetic taste, creativity and active listening so important in all school areas.
The house

The first learning must start from the knowledge of the closest and most daily. Recognize the spaces of a house: living room, dining room, kitchen, bedroom, and its utility.
The market

This area allows us to initiate students in the knowledge of food, but also in the rudiments of the economy: buy-sell.
The assembly

Present at the beginning of the day the activities to be performed and share moments of oral expression in a group, requires a comfortable, padded area that stimulates the free expression of ideas.
Manipulative work zone

In this area is the area of workshop: with tools and nuts to screw, turn, tighten; constructions to stack, form towers, roads or roads that complement the garage: they play with cars that have to be pushed in different directions to observe their trajectories. All this favors the oculi-manual coordination and initiates them in spatio-temporal notions.
The School

Identifying a space as "the school" allows us to initiate students in the way of school work: knowing how to sit in a chair, wait turns, use writing and painting supplies, their "first jobs" school, listening and attention, etc. .
El park

As important or more than learning concepts, is the development of the motor area, the fundamental basis of their learning. This area allows to work the psychomotor skills and enjoy climbing the slide, crossing tunnels of foam structures ...
The Atelier

This differentiated space is the experimentation workshop and creative atelier, in which the students explore different textures, colors, flavors and make the first approaches to the scientific method.

Creating a solid foundation for the future

Today's children will do jobs that are not yet invented. Creativity is as important in education as literacy, and that is why we should treat it with the same importance. Sir Ken Robinson

In Primary Education we offer a extended schedule that integrates extracurricular activities to reinforce learning in languages, mathematics, reading, writing, speaking and listening.

We promote the habits of coexistence as well as those of study and work, artistic sense, creativity and affectivity, in order to guarantee an integral formation that contributes to the full development of the personality of the students and prepare them to study Compulsory Secondary Education .

Mastering at least one second language is absolutely necessary

Bilingual Program

In an increasingly global world, the mastery of at least one second language is essential. Although the ability to acquire semantic skills is permanent in children and young people, only during the first years of life in which the brain is in full development children acquire a natural form language. Given the enormous learning capacity of children, learning a second language early is not only easier for them, but it also modifies the organization and structure of their brains improving their school performance. For these reasons it is very convenient to start a bilingual education from the first years of life.

Being a Bilingual Center implies the integration of a foreign language and other curricular contents maintaining a high level of educational quality without detriment to the academic performance in Spanish.

One of the fundamental aspects of the Educational Project of the School San Fernando it is their bilingual curriculum. The Bilingual Program has been implemented in all Primary and Secondary Education courses. As for Early Childhood Education, the youngest children already receive classes in English, some of them focused on content in the fundamental areas.

At the end of Primary Education and ESO, students receive a Certificate of Participation in the Bilingual Program.

Integration of the University of Cambridge in the Curriculum

All students can finish Baccalaureate with a recognized degree worldwide and equivalent to the Official School of Languages, in the College and without additional cost in preparation.

The School San Fernando has implemented the Cambridge English for Schools Project, developed by University of Cambridge. This prestigious program represents an advance in the methods of learning English and enables a high level in this language.

His method is used in all the courses of Primary Education and ESO, either as text of the subject or through the preparation of his exams in Cambridge Prep.

Likewise, the School is an Official Examination Center, offering our students the possibility of taking the prestigious exams at the School itself. University of Cambridge in its different levels:

  • Advanced English (C1), for students of 1º and 2º of Bachillerato.

The Foundation San Fernando It enables ESO and Bachillerato students to prepare their Cambridge exams at no additional cost in the College and during the afternoons.

Preparation for DELF exams

Currently, speaking a single foreign language is not enough. A student who speaks several languages ​​expands his personal and professional opportunities in the globalized world in which we live. For this reason, we have, in Secondary Education, French as a second foreign language.

The School maintains an agreement with the French Alliance which represents an advance in the methods of learning the French language, and which allows our students to present themselves and obtain official diplomas, such as DELF (Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française), granted by the French Ministry of Education, through the Alliance Française de Oviedo.

El DELF consists of 4 international official diplomas issued by the Ministry of National Education of France, to accredit French proficiency of foreign candidates and French nationals from a non-French speaking country and who do not possess a diploma of French Secondary or Higher Education .

The levels evaluated are the 4 first levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: A1, A2, B1 and B2 - The exams are independent, therefore, the candidate can enroll directly at the level of their choice.
