The MARQ organises an annual Educational Projects competition in which the province's pre-schools, special schools, primary schools, secondary schools and sixth form colleges take part, with the aim of getting pupils involved in learning about the past and getting them involved in a research activity.
Coinciding with its 10th edition for the 2015-16 academic year, a Special Mention has been awarded to the Special Education Classroom of the CEU School of Alicante. for the challenge of investigating disability and in this particular case the project that the students have carried out in the Room dedicated to the Middle Ages which is in the Museum of Alicante.
In the 2015-16 school year, the following participated more than fifty schools and nearly 1,500 pupils in the province of Alicante.
The award was presented on Tuesday 18 October by the managing director of the MARQ, José Alberto Cortés, and the head of the Didactics Department, Gema Sala, (in the picture) to the teachers at the centre.
From MARQ we understand that this award is an important and well-deserved recognition of the exceptional work carried out by the Educational Centres to achieve the full integration of people with cognitive functional diversity. It is a great satisfaction to be able to carry out joint work whose objective is to promote accessibility to the archaeological heritage that the MARQ treasures for special education groups and, at the same time, to enjoy the educational activities that the Museum offers.
Congratulations to all these guys for their hard work.
