Exchanges

In secondary education at the British School of Aragon we are firmly committed to continue to foster the same system that we have implemented over the years: A dynamic and innovative system in which the English language has a strong presence and plays an important role. We always follow our learning method of “Explore, interact and learn” in which the student is at the very centre of everything that takes place in the School. We give students all the resources they might need as well as optimally designed learning spaces with modern and exclusive facilities.
It is in secondary school when students start to really perfect their multilingual skills, obtaining the B2 certificate in English and the B1 in French or German. In fact, more than half of their daily classes for other curriculum subjects are taught in English.
By secondary education the students have naturally gained a lot of experience working in active methodologies. And they continue to do so, by working cooperatively, researching and also debating to foster a capacity for critical thinking, to master of public speaking and to excel at teamwork. Core values for the future.

Tools for your future
Our number one priority is for student to develop skills and abilities that will provide them with the tools they need for successful futures. We focus on a method that can be memorised, and what’s more, it is a method that is participative; it engages students and gives then responsibilities throughout the learning process, helping them to become aware of how and why they are learning.
