Broskolan
Broskolan is the school for those who live in the most remote place of the
municipality. Two thirds of the students live in Central Bridge and its
neighbourhood. One third of the students take the bus from neighbouring
smaller communities. There are about 400 students and 40 teachers and
educators. 3 basic pillars support their teaching and learning policies to
enhance students’ learning:
IT- all students have their own Ipad and use Lego robots for programming.
LANGUAGE- Despite their “language enhancing method”, lessons tend to be
focused on grammar and less in language in use.
.
SOCIETY- to provide students with a basic understanding of how a democratic
society works. They encourage students to participate in the school council.
Students in Broskolan can take advantage of a
recreation centre after
school, which is open all year round. The centre is intended to contribute to the
students’ emotional growth and social development. It also complements the
school and offers meaningful leisure and recreation. It is worth pointing out that
there is a strong coordination with Broskolan.
