Our ultimate goal is Values Education.
CEI El Jarama seeks to offer teachers all the resources and tools that help them develop children in a comprehensive way. We care about their happiness, their capacity for critical thinking, the acquisition of values like teamwork, respect for the environment, and the tolerance for other cultures.
Our wish is to contribute as best we can to improving this society, which is why at CEI El Jarama we strive for young people to not just have fun, but also develop their skills and abilities.
Our program for Primary Education focuses on being in contact with Nature and playing as the primary instrument through which participants learn to live in harmony with others.
We propose a series of educational activities and experiences that are based upon Primary-level curricular content.
