There is an increasing interest in the benefits and advantages of an adequate school environment; families consider that the learning environment in which their children develop is essential to achieve a healthy physical and psychological development. In addition, a good school environment contributes to generating more significant learning more quickly. When situations arise that are difficult for students to control, not only are learning processes hindered, but sometimes those who are present there transfer those concerns or emotions to other spaces. Hence the importance of generating programs and strategies to improve the school environment and improve learning and with it, the benefits and advantages of a good school environment to learn faster.

School environment

School environment refers to the way in which the members of an educational community communicate and relate to each other inside and outside the classroom. Likewise, it is conceived as a space structured in such a way as to facilitate knowledge and learning through real activities. But how can we recognize a safe and conducive school environment for learning?

At Logos International School we are convinced that an adequate school environment is evidenced through the following processes:

• Values formation.
• Involve family members in the teaching process.
• Development of integrated projects.
• Raise students' awareness of their environment.
• Encourage respect for the opinions and emotions of their peers and encourage them to express their own.
• Compliance with internal agreements.
• Student assessment.
• Development of emotional and affective education.

Benefits and advantages of a good school environment

A good school environment is of vital importance for student learning, infrastructure, the development of educational and didactic programs, the correct use of technology are some of the aspects that are also present in a good school environment. Among the benefits and advantages of a good school environment, according to our curriculum and experience, we can mention:

Improves learning and academic performance

Undoubtedly, students learn faster when conditions favor it, so one of the main advantages of a good school environment is the achievement of learning and academic performance.

Projects collective work

When in charge of a suitable environment, students are helped to generate greater self-esteem and confidence in themselves and in others. Positively influencing the collective work.

Conflict resolution

If we manage to make students feel cared for, educated and protected in emotionally intense situations in a safe environment, we will ensure that students will be able to better resolve the conflicts that arise in everyday life, which is a fundamental tool for life.

Ruler Program

A great advantage that we have in our Logos International School to develop a good school environment is the implementation of the Ruler program. The main purpose of the program is that the students of the school are able to identify, regulate and project their emotions. Providing them with the tools that will allow them to act under situations of conflict, stress, frustration, among others.

When people are able to recognize their own emotions, they will also be able to recognize those of others. This is an indispensable detail for a healthy coexistence and a good school environment, achieving an ideal environment for a faster and more meaningful learning for the student.

This program, of which we are pioneers in Spain, is scientifically endorsed by Yale University, which expects to obtain more sensitive, solidary, committed students, and, therefore, more competent in education.

At Logos International we are interested in the social and emotional aspects that take place inside and outside the classroom. Social sensitivity regarding the school environment is a constant theme in our center. We are always looking to implement and develop programs and strategies to improve it, in order to achieve true learning.
