At Great International Schools students develop skills and competencies through two languages in a variety of environments and contexts, with different experiences inside and outside the classroom. They build resources to interact with each other and move around the world.
“Being bilingual is being the process, a process in change, it is not having two languages but living in two languages, in two worlds, navigating in other spaces; it is widening views, having other perspectives of the world, it is freer participation, dynamic knowledge; it is to live in love, accepting others as they are, it is being open to communicate, as well as the act of giving and receiving; communicating as a way of life; it is a new worldview where there are no fixed models in which institutions and values start to be referenced and therefore reconsidered in order to be more possible; it is to live in more than one existence”- (Antonio da Cunha Duarte Justo, 2008).
