Batería de San Juan
Batería de San Juan links a former military coastal battery with a public school offering infant and primary education. The school carries its historic name once again.
Its everyday services include school meals, breakfasts and early morning care for families in the surrounding community. The centre began as an EGB school before reclaiming its original name.
Educational innovation shapes the centre through an aula del futuro, creative learning spaces and project work across distinct zones. Pupils work through presentation, research, creation, exchange and development.
Earlier projects produced materials for interactive whiteboards, while later spaces expanded practical and creative learning. The school runs radio and robotics activities.
It also joins eTwinning and Erasmus+ initiatives, connecting local school life with wider educational partnerships. Inclusive teaching supports emotional health and environmental education.
Digital work has earned recognition, and staff cooperate with families and local institutions on shared educational projects. The centre serves its community through learning and care.
The name joins defensive history with school life, linking a coastal past to children’s everyday work. Batería de San Juan brings both stories together.
