We have such a wide range that we're endless, and at the same time, it's often the way our students communicate," explains Pilar Garcia, director of the Can Vila municipal special education school in Mollet del Vallès. The school, which is located between three and twenty years old, bases its educational project on art, and does so especially through theater. The students who join the Can Vila community have previously attended mainstream school and arrive here after experiencing situations of failure. "What we don't want is for this to happen again when they enter our school. Their autonomy, self-esteem, security, the ability to feel responsible, and the bond they establish with adults, among other things, are important to them, but for us, it's not a priority. Our priority is precisely to value and emphasize the things they must do to improve their quality of life and emotional well-being. Based on this, we will enhance all the abilities our students possess." </p>]]></description>
