Getting children to learn and internalize basic school values is one of the key tasks that all educational institutions should seek. Of course, at Logos International School international school in Las Rozas de Madrid , we take great care to comply with this, being one of the bases of our work with the students.

What are school values and why are they so important?

We understand school values as the group of behaviors that children should be guided by throughout their time at school. They are beliefs that, in addition, allow students to behave appropriately in any type of social environment.

Thanks to these values, children, from a very early age, grow, develop and realize themselves as people with appropriate behavior, learning to respect, acting responsibly, etc.

That is why they are so important. Children, from their earliest childhood, learn to cope correctly in any kind of events, adapting to situations, solving problems with resilience and creativity, etc.

With values, children develop into confident, responsible adults, living their present with remarkable well-being and looking to the future with hope.

What are the values a child learns at school?

The school values learned by each child in school should meet a number of unique characteristics, which are:

1. Universality: that is, that they are transversal and useful in any culture.
2. Lasting: they will transcend in time and remain in your memory forever.
3. Individual and collective: they depend both on oneself and on the group.
4. Historical: they have been formalized over the years.
5. Identitarian: they forge the individual's identity and vision of reality.

School values

What are the values that children learn at school and make their own forever? In our opinion, these should never be missing:

Respect

Children must respect their environment. Through the recognition of others, they will base their decisions on the acceptance of others, with their virtues and defects, beyond appearances, ideologies or beliefs, basing their decisions on morals and ethics.

Responsibility

Students should be aware of their obligations and duties. Just as they understand their rights, they also accept their responsibilities in various areas, from school to social.

In the case of school, the young person is aware of the obligation to keep his or her work up to date, arrive to class on time, do his or her homework diligently, take care of the material, etc.

Tolerance

Another value derived from ethics is key to the correct development of students. It is necessary for them to be educated in tolerance in order to accept and respect the behavior and thoughts of other children.

The young person respects the opinions of others, even if they do not coincide with his or her own. It is fundamental to create a good atmosphere in class by accepting classmates of all types and conditions.

Partnership

If there is one school value that is important, it is companionship. It is key that students can rely on each other, learn to work as a team and cooperate in a way that enhances their talents and abilities as individuals and as a group.

Perseverance

The children are forced to overcome all kinds of obstacles. But by persevering they will achieve their goals in the end. This is a value that we teachers take great care to instill so that children learn and make it their own.

At Logos International School international school in Las Rozas de Madrid we have a professional team of teachers and pedagogues who put into practice the acquisition of positive school values so that students give the best version of themselves during and after their time at our school.
