Physical practice in a new model and Education
After understanding the need to restructure the current education model, it is important to think about the deconstruction of practices that are usually dominant within schools. In the case of physical education, several approaches were used, such as Hygienist, Pedagogical, Sportsman, Technicist, attitudes totally controversial to the objectives of education.
Our Pedagogical proposal
The Open Learning School’s pedagogical proposal involves the formation of people and citizens who are increasingly cultured, autonomous, responsible and democratically committed to building a society that enhances the affirmation of the noblest and highest qualities of each human being.
Why does the Traditional School not work?
“You cannot give to drink a horse that is not thirsty”, a famous phrase by José Pacheco. You don’t learn through memorization. Memorizing is not understanding, it is not questioning, it is not exploring or delving into a topic.
The 10 differences between Traditional School and Open learning School

Open Learning School Founders Story
My entire professional career has been representing and recruiting internationally for the “best” colleges and universities in the world. Imagine schools with over 600 years of history or with campuses so modern they look like an amusement park, equipped with stables, a golf course and the latest technology.
How the Open Learning School pedagogy works in practice
It is possible to learn more and better, without classes, classes and tests. We have divided the practical explanation of how it all works into 4 areas:
1. How we organize
2. What is our pedagogical proposal
3. How we evaluate
4. Education Model
Why I created Open Learning School
The reason I created the Open Learning School was not altruistic, it was the need to provide the best possible education for my children. In addition to having experienced education in 5 different countries, where I grew up, I have been in the Education field for over 15 years, more specifically in the recruitment of international students for colleges and universities in the UK.
Why is there no separation from recess to classroom?
In life, do we learn only when we are taught something or do we learn from everything we see or experience at all times? We believe that the Open Learning School learning model is a metaphor for life.
