Lanzadera Project

A boost for talent and high abilities.

Attention to diversity means responding to each student's individual differences. Lanzadera Project is our programme for students in 4th to 6th year of Primary who have been identified as having high abilities or a similar profile, designed to offer them an enriching educational model that fosters the development of their ability and their talent.

Attention to diversity

A tailored educational response

We understand that every student is different, and at some point during their education they may have different educational needs. With the Lanzadera Project, we want students with high abilities to find motivation and effective learning tools, within their regular school timetable.

A different theme every year

Themes by school year

2025-2026 school year The Renaissance
Vitruvian Man, by Leonardo da Vinci

In the 25-26 school year, students explored the Renaissance through numerous activities, including:

  • They studied the figure of Leonardo da Vinci.
  • Students built a self-supporting bridge.
  • They studied perspective, creating a worksheet comparing prehistoric paintings with a figure drawn in perspective.
  • They studied proportion by analysing Vitruvian Man, and checked whether those proportions held true in their own bodies.
  • They read an adapted version of Lazarillo de Tormes and wrote their own short picaresque story.
  • They analysed and reinterpreted famous Renaissance paintings: the Mona Lisa, The Last Supper, The Birth of Venus, The School of Athens and details from the Sistine Chapel.
  • They studied some notable constructions from this historical period.

Beyond the learning that takes place in these sessions, there's another important factor: thanks to this weekly project, students with similar traits and a "hunger" for knowledge, from different year groups, get to know each other better and build special bonds.

2024-2025 school year Ancient Rome, Pompeii
Ancient Rome, Pompeii
