The CEIP ‘Juan Caro, represented by its director, Sergio Balbuena, together with the Provincial Director of the Ministry of Education, Vocational Training and Sports (MEFPyD), Elena Fernández Treviño, has today been awarded the national prize ‘Sustainable Educational Center’, in an event that has taken place at the headquarters of the Ministry of Education in Madrid.
The Provincial Director of the MEFPyD has congratulated the teaching team, recognizing that this “more than deserved” award responds to a trajectory marked by a constant commitment to education and the environment. “Projects such as school gardens have been essential to not only enrich the training of students, but also promote the cohesion of the neighborhood,” he stressed.
It is a recognition of the Ministry to the educational centers that promote the integral school approach for sustainability, assuming a firm and unequivocal commitment to sustainable development. Through it, the CEIP ‘Juan Caro’ is granted a grant of 7,500 euros to promote this initiative that, for several years, has been carried out with the collaboration of the entire educational community.
