CEPA ENTREVÍAS

We are a Spanish Centre for Adult Education that currently offers Initial, Secondary, Basic Professional Training (gardening), Spanish for foreigners and various teachings for personal development (English, Physical Education and Computer Science) in a multicultural neighbourhood near the centre of Madrid (Entrevías).

Entrevías is undoubtedly one of the neighbourhoods with the lowest average income in Madrid, and with a school dropout rate that is twice the average of the capital, but it is a participatory and supportive district. For this reason, our centre has been since it opened its doors in 1975 trying to give an educational opportunity to all those people in the neighbourhood who decide to resume their training, both academic and work.

We have detected in our centre the need to implement new methodologies that develop the different competencies of the students and prepare them for real life, for this reason, we want to develop the Project Based Learning (PBL) methodology in it.
