SPAIN IES El Sobradillo
IES El Sobradillo is an institution located in a
peripheral neighborhood in the southwest district of the capital of the island of Tenerife. Our center
offers the teaching of Compulsory Secondary Education, Baccalaureate and
Vocational Training (professional qualifications level 1, 2 and 3) of three professional
families and that has an Enclave Classroom that trains students with
intellectual and motor disabilities.
Our students,
especially in Compulsory Secondary Education and Basic Vocational Training,
come from an environment with a lack of healthy habits, associated in large
part with a low purchasing power, but also due to lack of training in creating
daily routines at home.
We have a
significant percentage of students with specific needs for educational support
and students with disabilities, even having an enclave classroom, for students
with intellectual and motor disabilities who are integrated into many of the
center’s activities.
Our center is
involved with its environment, actively participating in the activities
proposed by the City Council (extracurricular sports activities within the
center and outside of it, such as hiking, cultural visits, etc.), health center
in the area (specific workshops of health promotion and risk prevention,
collaboration in the detection of student health problems, etc.), social
services (joint intervention in situations of possible risk), neighborhood
associations and families, as well as non-governmental organizations that offer
everything type of workshops and activities to promote a comprehensive
education of the entire educational community.
The center was
founded in 1992, beginning to offer vocational education exclusively. Gradually
the teachings of Compulsory Secondary Education, Baccalaureate and Enclave
Class were incorporated, which favored the elimination of architectural
barriers becoming a completely accessible center for people with reduced
mobility.
As additional
resources we have a kitchen within the Enclave Classroom for the development of
the personal autonomy of its students, a cafeteria that opens in the morning
and afternoon and a school garden dynamised by teachers of the Agrarian
professional family. Regarding the use of new technologies we have two computer
rooms and a library that has computers for the use of students and families that
need it.
Apart from
this, the center disseminates the activities it carries out and information
relevant to the educational community through social networks such as Facebook,
Instagram and Twitter, as well as the center’s website (http://www.ieselsobradillo.com).
IES El
Sobradillo is an Institution with Advanced Vocational Training in
Administrative, Agriculture and
Automotive. This is the first time we are trying to be involved in
European Programe as Erasmus +, although we have some experts from other
countries working with us helping to improve the level of English of our students.
First of all we
are interested in companies and institutions related to the fields named
before. In the same way, is very important to find a good place were our
students improve their knowledges about English and other tasks. Employability,
opportunities, facilities of accommodation are very important.
Our Institution
is located near the city centre of the capital of the island of Tenerife, in a
not really developed area, where students need new ways to improve their
cultural level and a chance to discover different countries and cultures.
