Children are not developing their talents at school
In Mexico, out of every 100 children who enter 1st grade, only 77 go on to middle school and 57 to high school, at which point only 50% graduate. Less than 40% of sixth grade students in indigenous schools learn what is expected. One in five teachers does not feel prepared to teach her subjects and only half of teachers have been trained in didactic methods. Only 1% of students reach the highest levels (5 and 6) in science, reading and mathematics in the PISA educational quality assessment test, a test in which Mexico ranks below average.
We developed a program to detect different types of talent
Our content, designed for each grade level, promotes the development of life skills, individuality, respect for differences and also promotes optimal performance in each student. The experiential methodology and teamwork inherent in the activities strengthen the classroom environment. Together, these aspects have an impact on students’ motivation to study and on their school performance. More than 150,000 participants from the school community, including parents from preschool through high school, have been part of this program.
