We build bonds, care for emotions and foster independence.
El Cargol nursery school is an early-childhood educational centre with a living pedagogy and a project designed to support our children from 0 to 3 years of age in every area of their development. It is privately owned and recognised by the Department of Education of the Generalitat de Catalunya under number 08052104.
Our centre works to make family and work life easier, offering children and their families a space for growth and trust — a rich, welcoming environment where love and care come before everything else.
We offer respectful emotional support so that children can discover the world at their own pace and without pressure. Settling in is relaxed, giving each child the time they need to build bonds of trust with the space, the educators and the rest of the group.
True education consists of bringing out the best in every person.
Mahatma Gandhi
We foster the natural equality between children, removing gender stereotypes. We create an enriching environment where coexistence is based on respect, acceptance and growing together.
We make Catalan our main language of instruction while introducing English daily. We respect each child's mother tongue during settling-in and value the cultural richness of all our families.
We are a pluralistic centre where we educate from a place of objectivity. We defend freedom of belief and respect for all the ideological choices of our families, without indoctrination.
We are committed to dialogue and consensus in our educational approach. We help raise emotionally stable, tolerant and caring children, grounded in the values of respect that belong to a democratic society.
We see work and participation as the key tools for the centre to run well. We are a committed team that pools its efforts to offer the best educational work every day.
We offer a space open to everyone, with no distinction of origin or background. We provide every means necessary to create an ideal environment where each child feels welcomed and valued.
Family and school are the first socialising agents in a child’s life. For us it is essential to establish smooth, direct, high-quality and daily communication between family and school, in order to build a close bond and work together to support the child’s proper development throughout their time at our centre.
