Compaen VMBO is a cultural profile school with over 860 pupils, located in the Zaandam district of Westerwatering. The mission of Compaen VMBO is: At Compaen VMBO we educate students to become critically thinking, respectful (world) citizens who show initiative and can independently participate in the changing society. We do this from the idea of learning with space and support, both with pupils and students and with teachers. We use each other's qualities and learn and work in an inspiring environment.
Head, heart and hands
Our students do not just learn from a book. Teachers provide activating lessons, always looking for cross-curricular interfaces. Learning by doing, often outside school or with guest speakers - that is how we prefer to see our education. This requires a teacher who likes variety and dares to let go of 'the method'.
Structure provides space
Space to make choices and offering autonomy to pupils is very important to us. Pupils are given space; we provide structure. Teachers have the opportunity to use expertise outside their subject area for the broad development of pupils.
Teacher as learning professional
We like to see a teacher grow, and facilitate that. Study days focus on pedagogical and teaching skills. We also learn a lot from each other through an open culture. We are a training school and see in students a source of innovation that keeps our teachers sharp.
Our extras
We are a proud Cultural profile school. You notice this because we not only offer many art subjects, but also look for the interfaces with art forms in the other subjects. So teachers look for application of their subject in art in the broadest sense.
All subjects pay attention to citizenship, often project-based but always clearly identifiable. We are a ''Healthy school' . This means that we pay structural attention to nutrition, exercise and a healthy lifestyle.
