Principles

At Blooming we are dedicate to develop good and happy citizens committed to their own growth, to the growth of others in society.

In our learning center the entire infrastructure was designed and aligned with pedagogical practices to offer students the possibility of a practical experience, in an attractive and stimulating way.

Playing is understood as children’s output and not only as a tool for school learning. The teaching-learning relationship promotes the dialogue between curriculum content and unique contents, comprised by experiences, stories and individuality of each one that circulates throughout educational territories, whether inside or outside the school.

To contemplate the uniqueness of each student in the construction of their training path, our educators have a broad knowledge of the multiple ways in which children learn and develop and, consequently, a plurality of methods and interventions that can be put into practice based on their needs, interests and learning goals.

Following an international curriculum, our community of apprentices is based on the 12 principles below:

Individual Attention

Each child is unique, and here we value individuality, respecting their individual developmental pace.

Love, Care, and Dedication

We provide an environment where children feel loved and secure.

Autonomy

Fostering independence in a rich environment filled with opportunities for children to explore helps shape individuals who are fully aware of their abilities and how to face challenges.

Educational Excellence

We are in constant transformation, always seeking to expose our children to the best educational practices available, emphasizing playful, critical, and investigative learning.

Emotional Intelligence

Helping children recognize their emotions directly influences their development as individuals. Reflecting on how to handle their feelings is key to unlocking the ability to resolve internal and external conflicts, building healthy relationships.
