  • Hi Guys,
    Come along with me as we take a tour of one of the schools on Pico island, Azores.
    We learn a bit about the quality, the standards and overall education of the school/schools. My tour guides were Marisa(teacher) and Rafael(principal/teacher) of the Lajes school.
    The grades go from Kindergarten to 12, over 500 students, 30 classes, full curriculum, 3 buildings, healthy restaurant, lots of lounges, and more. I would also have to add that this school in Lajes was totally up to date, safe and high tech smart.
    We hope you enjoyed learning a bit about the school and overall education.
    Love having you with us on our journey
    Carlos & Laura
    xoxo

    Thank you. This was one of my questions from way back. It's a great topic for people who are considering moving to the island with a family.

    Hi Carlos, Thank you for doing a video on the schools. I was wondering about the quality of education in the islands and about children's resources in general. I have many more questions saved when I see you at the Workshop next month.

    Very impressive. I can imagine going up and down all those outside stairs keeps you in shape. What about subjects like Home Ec., or trades (woodworking, electrical, automotive),?

      I thought it was as well. You are talking about trade classes, it does not. It would be brilliant and needed if they had a school like that, especially with the main trades etc. Take care!

      How things have changed, important to keep improving the education system. We will do another video on real estate. Cheers

    Thank you wasn’t expecting this video but very interesting and I think we are just so use to schools in Canada or USA. Which don’t look like that or give that kind of education either. Thank you for the video

    Great video! Thank you so much! Is this sort of school/education typical in the Azores? Wondering if something similar would exist on Sao Miguel?

    • @ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552
      @ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552  Месяц назад

      Thank you! The big island of Sao Miguel would have more options similar to this. They also have the top university in the Azores. Take care!

    Great video and very informative, school there has definitely changed from when I was a student in the Externato da Madalena! With that said, would you be able to arrange a visit to the secondary school in Madalena. Would like to know more about their curriculum also. Thank you and keep up the good job you are
    doing!

    Looks like a great school. I especially appreciate the healthy food (while U.S. schools still serve pop/soda and pizza). Is there also a school for special needs children with conditions like autism?

    Still looks like a warehouse to me 😂

      The most important for me is not the look, but what happens inside. I would have done the architecture a bit differently as well. Cheers
