Future Plans For 2009
|
1º THE EXTENSION OF THE SCHOOL BUILDING:
We believe that the construction of additional classes would be a solution to many of the problems in this area.
Currently we have just 2 classes but we are planning to make 3 more in the next year.
Right now the closest area school is completely full, which means that many of the children travel a substantial distance in order to receive proper education. With the construction of a new school these children would not have to make a long and expensive commute. With a school in their proximity, many children currently unable to study might be willing and able to participate.
Also the new building could provide the infrastructure for “COMMUNAL MEETINGS” and “PARENT SCHOOLS” as well as to provide a meeting point for students and professionals of education
In other words a extension of our school in this area could change the form of life for many of these people. We have a building where classes will be taught this year, but it is relatively small and we will need a bigger structure for the future.
2º EXTENSION OF THE SCHOOL’S SERVICE:
We are planning to offer an alternative form of education in order to reach the street children who are not fortunate enough to participate in our regular school program. These children do not study because school schedules are inflexible around their employment in the streets of Cusco washing cars, and selling postcards, cigarettes, crafts, etc. For this specific group of children we will offer a special program.
Seventy percent of the normal program will be offered in special autodidact materials. In this way the children working in the streets will be able to create a special schedule around their work
We will however continue to teach thirty percent of the classes to students in this alternative program in traditional form. This means the students will come to our school one or two days a week in order that adequate guidance and control can be maintained. Thus our outset is to reach a bigger group of working street children so that these children will NOT LOSE YEARS OF EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY

3º PLANS FOR CLASSES NEXT YEAR:
Next year (2009) we are planing to help 170 children with education, medical assistance, some of food and a lot of our love and protection.
The school will start at march. According to aour new system the children who lost one or more years studying, with us they will study in one year what they would study in two years in a normal school, so that they can recover lost years. We are convinced this is possible because of the following three reasons:
a. First: Our classes will be smaller than those in regular schools. Where a normal Peruvian school works with classes of 40 children, our classes will have half this amount. By teaching in groups of no more than 20 children, every student will receive more personal attention and automatically the speed at which the entire group is able to deal with the subject matter will increase.
b. Second: Our teaching methodology will focus solely on core education, rather than paying a lot of attention to “extra” subjects. A traditional school in Peru will teach religion for at least two hours a week, it will also teach “educacion civica” (teaching Peruvian national emblems, anthem, etc.) for two hours a week.
c. Third and finally: Our school will offer a 7 hour program instead of the regular 4.5 hour program, increasing its efficiency.
