At CBC we train our students with a multilingual proposal (Spanish-English-French) based on the Project Based Learning methodology, which responds to the context of the school in a rich cultural tradition of the city, the region and the requirement of higher levels of competence of the individual from the social and cultural context.

PRESCHOOL

Where are we located?

At CBC we have two Preschool sites. The first is located in the Castillogrande neighborhood and is a magical castle that invites children to take a tour of different countries and cultures, across its spaces.
In the main headquarters of our school, the country preschool is located, which allows children to get in touch with nature and explore different spaces.

What inspires us?

Our preschool curriculum is designed around the following learning principles, which we consider essential to the educational process and development of children.

  • Children should be supported to learn and develop at their own pace.
  • Play is an essential aspect of learning and development for all children.
  • Learning occurs when experiences are developmentally appropriate, where our highly qualified teaching staff tap into children's natural curiosity in a nurturing and appropriate environment.
  • Independent and interdependent learning experiences create a context for personal development and are the foundation of international mindedness.
  • The development of knowledge and skills leads to an adequate understanding process when children have the opportunity to explore and express their ideas in multiple ways.
  • Continuous observation, in the form of evaluation and reflection, is effective when it involves a learning bond with the home.
  • Learning should be motivating, engaging, and fun, opening a world of wonders for children where personal interests can flourish.

How do our preschool students learn?

The IEYC learning process captures children's natural curiosity as a starting point and within the appropriate environment balances child-initiated and teacher-led learning.

  • Communication: we focus on exploring and mastering the different ways in which we communicate what we think and feel: listening, speaking, reading, writing, numbers, measurements and figures, digital language and artistic expressions and creativity.
  • Independence and interdependence: this axis seeks personal, social and emotional development through the development of personal goals and the perspective of the other from an international environment.
  • Critical and investigative sense: we seek to develop these skills through the exploration of the world, its environment and people.
  • Healthy life and physical well-being: we strengthen positive attitudes that guide students to make adequate decisions about their health, the importance of physical and mental well-being.

These axes are developed through classroom projects that are based on their interests and themes that manage to capture the natural curiosity of children. We follow the following step by step in the development of our classroom projects:

International Early Years Curriculum – IEYC

The International Early Years Curriculum (IEYC) is an innovative research-based toolkit, recognizing international best practice and the developmental needs of preschool ages. The IEYC is a perfect tool for the transition phase to the primary section, forging a seamless link between early and formal education.
