THE TEACHERS:

"The teacher is one who lives the educational vocation with intensity and passion but above all with the desire to ensure that the journey undertaken by the students takes place in a dimension of splendor, that the educational and didactic experiences have for them the flavor of events capable of changing their lives, of generating new awareness, of joyfully walking the path that leads to enjoying the splendor of truth, the strength of beauty, the joy of goodness. Ultimately this is the true "miracle" of the educational relationship when unexpected horizons open up to our students and these become significant for their lives."

Andrea Porcarelli

 

Educating is not simply a job, it is a vocation, an encounter with others, a meeting of souls. In this relationship the child perceives that he is important and precious in the eyes of the adult, who takes care of him with joy. Thanks to this relationship of affection and trust, an environment in which to feel good is created in the school, both between colleagues and with children. This well-being is sacred and we adults have the task of nourishing it every day, because children who breathe an atmosphere of serenity and peace at school (and in the family) develop their learning in joy.

 

The Elisa Lari nursery school is a big family, especially for the teachers who work there with dedication and love. It is a place where you can find the affection of home, where you are valued for your qualities, where you willingly help each other in difficulties, where it is always possible to learn from others, small or large, where in a daily dialogue between colleagues you are available to welcome fraternal corrections, strengthened by a professional friendship that is created by sharing a passion for education.

Furthermore, the teacher at our school takes care of himself and nourishes his own inner spirituality, in order to transmit the values ​​of Christian life to children, to let them know the love of God and his teachings, especially through the story of the life of Jesus.

​

Programming ensures respect for teachers' freedom of teaching. Updating and training constitute a commitment for all teaching staff and a task for the administration.
Our school encourages the participation of teachers in various forms of ongoing training:

 

Periodic local updates promoted by the FISM, the Municipality and other bodies (Creativ, Studio Alfa, Catholic Action, Families in the centre, Movement for Life, Progetto Crescere, Noè Committee, Onde Chiare...)

Training, information and evaluation meetings held by the pedagogical coordinator assigned by the FISM of which the President is Sandra Rompianesi and the pedagogist Elisa Tamagnini.

 

Collegiality is carried out in the planning phase at the beginning of the year and is achieved in progress through:

 

the planning of the educational – didactic project of the year;

the identification of transversal objectives specific to the various fields of experience;

the hypothesis of operational paths with the activation of laboratories.

 

It materializes in:

 

request of teachers and all staff working in the school for congruent behaviors and skills;

request to adopt coherent attitudes;

common methodological approach, respecting the personality of each teacher;

choice of contents and activities to be carried out in section and intersection;

collaboration in comparison and self-evaluation.
