HighScope is an innovative curriculum that promotes active and participatory learning, placing children as the protagonists of their development. Based on the PTR (Plan, Work and Reflect) model, it structures activities to foster autonomy, critical thinking, leadership and problem-solving skills.
At Arboleda School, HighScope is implemented from Early Childhood, creating an environment in which students plan, execute and reflect on their actions. This approach allows them to learn through meaningful experiences and develops their confidence, creativity and essential life skills.
Students choose activities, setting clear goals and strategies that strengthen their ability to plan and make decisions.
They execute planned activities, actively interacting with their environment, exploring ideas and solving practical problems.
They evaluate what they have done, analyzing their learning and achievements, while identifying new goals that strengthen their critical thinking.
At Arboleda School, HighScope is implemented with a hands-on approach that turns learning into a meaningful experience. Through the PTR (Plan, Work and Reflect) methodology, students plan activities, actively execute them and reflect on their achievements, strengthening autonomy and critical thinking.
