Pedagogical Proposal

The pedagogical proposal of Coree is based on solid values considered essential for the growth and development of students. It seeks EXCELLENCE in everything it does, prioritizing the quality and importance of each stage of the educational process. It promotes STUDENT AGENCY, encouraging students to be active agents in their own learning and to innovate responsibly. COLLABORATION, based on TRANSPARENCY and TRUST, is a fundamental pillar for the construction of knowledge and the pursuit of common results, achieved through teamwork. RESPECT is at the core of interactions, valuing opinions, rights, feelings, and the inclusion of everyone. In addition, it practices WELCOMING, receiving and treating everyone with empathy and care, creating a welcoming and positive environment for the learning and development of each child/student in their journey.

With the mission of "Empowering for a promising future," Coree International School is dedicated to the holistic development of its students through a Pedagogical Project that encompasses both intellectual and human aspects.

Founded on socio-constructivist principles, the Pedagogical Project of Coree International School aligns, from Early Childhood to High School, with the guidelines of the BNCC - National Common Curricular Base and the International Baccalaureate - IB.

The uniqueness of Coree International School’s pedagogical proposal is reflected in the careful design of the curriculum, the innovative methodological approach, and the assessment process. Student commitment to their own learning is fostered through the use of standards, learning indicators, and rubrics, placing them as the central protagonist of the educational process.

The adoption of active learning methodologies, the implementation of formative assessment processes, the integration of Mindfulness practices, and the inclusion of subjects such as Design and Robotics give the curriculum of Coree International School a truly innovative character.

The presence of an inter and transdisciplinary approach in the curriculum meets the principles of the IB and enables students to apply the knowledge gained in various areas to solve complex real-world problems, a process known as Problem-Based Learning. This investigative and problem-solving methodology promotes the development of curiosity and a deeper understanding of the world around them (IBO, 2009).

As a bilingual school with a Brazilian identity and an immersion proposal in the English language, second-language teaching at Coree International School begins in Early Childhood Education, where learning and interactions occur mediated by the target language - English. From Elementary School I, the full-time curriculum is organized between Portuguese and English and occurs simultaneously, observing a 50% ratio in Portuguese and 50% in English. Spanish language instruction begins in the 8th grade of Elementary School.

The school excels in preparing students for national and international exams, such as the ENEM, entrance exams, English language proficiency, and exams for admission to foreign universities.

Swimming is part of our curriculum and is offered from Kinder 4 - 4 years old. The main objectives are the development of aquatic motor skills and the promotion of water safety, necessary for the continuation of the pure swimming teaching-learning proposal, which occurs from G1 - 1st year to G4 - 4th year. At this stage, students learn the four strokes with their respective techniques. We deliver the complete swimming teaching-learning process, and students, after or during the process, can choose to participate in Coree's base swimming team.

Upon completing the bilingual program of Coree International School, the student achieves:

• National High School Diploma

• American High School Diploma

• International Baccalaureate Diploma
