The Gaudí Architect School and the Magnet program
The Gaudí Architect School has been selected to participate in the Magnet program: Alliances for educational success. This program aims to foster alliances between educational centers and institutions of reference and excellence in a specific field of knowledge. Through this initiative, collaboration between the school’s teaching team and the professionals of an institution will be promoted to enrich the educational project.
The development of the program
The Magnet program will start in September this year and will run for the next four years. During this period, joint work will be carried out between the Gaudí Architect School and the College of Architects of Catalonia, with whom a collaboration has been established for the development of the project. This collaboration will allow the enrichment of the school’s educational project.
Budget and program support
Regarding the budget, a sum of 1,500 euros has been allocated for the initial training sessions of this year. In addition, expenses have been planned for the coming years, with a total of 6,500 euros per year until 2027. The Magnet program is promoted by the Jaume Bofill Foundation, in collaboration with the Department of Education of the Generalitat de Catalunya and the City Council. Currently, this program benefits more than 12,000 students from 41 educational centers throughout the Catalan territory.
The role of the College of Architects of Catalonia
The College of Architects of Catalonia will play a fundamental role in this project. A reference magnet from the College of Architects will be in charge of providing training and defining commitments and strategies for the integration of architectural knowledge in classrooms during the program. This collaboration will allow the students of the Gaudí Architect School to acquire new knowledge and experience in this field.
Benefits of the Magnet program
The Magnet project offers an opportunity for educational transformation, betting on balanced schooling and the realization of competence projects. Through this program, training sessions will be held on architecture as a tool to generate more transversal knowledge. This will allow the students of the Arquitecte Gaudí school to enrich their learning and develop skills.
Repercussions for the Architect Gaudí school
The director of the school, Rosana Azol, emphasizes that this project comes at an important time for the school, as it coincides with the celebration of the center’s 50th anniversary and the improvement of the facilities. This initiative will allow the school to open in the neighborhoods of La Salut and Can Maginàs, offering new experiences to students. Both teachers and students will have the opportunity to grow and enrich themselves on a personal and professional level thanks to participation in the Magnet program.
