Tàndem Schools
In the 2013-2014 academic year, the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya began working with the former Escola Miquel Bleach, now the Institut Escola Arts, as part of the Tàndem Schools project. This project, promoted by the Fundació Catalunya La Pedrera, aims to foster educational success in complex school environments.
To this end, a long-standing collaboration was established with the aim of enriching the educational experience, the quality of learning and the improvement of academic results through art and heritage.
All educational levels of the school participate, from nursery to secondary school. In the first three years of joint work (2013-2016) there was a profound transformation in the way the school worked. The change was methodological and also organisational and focused on the implementation of two methodologies:
- Project work in which art and artistic heritage play a relevant role.
- Visual Thinking Strategies that are used to integrate, through art, the cultural and linguistic diversity present in the school in a creative and effective way.
Each year, the projects are structured around a research theme chosen by the school or proposed by the museum within the framework of the ODS.
The areas of collaboration range from training and advice for teachers to develop specific projects to community action involving the participation of families in various events with art as a mediating agent. The sustainability of this project over time is based on the win-win philosophy. On the one hand, the school diversifies and expands its learning spaces: the rooms and the museum's trades provide a multidisciplinary space where sciences and humanities acquire a complementary meaning around the artwork.
One of the aims of the collaboration has been to provide tools for the school's teachers and students to grow in autonomy in the use of art. Moreover, the school collaborates with the museum in helping to test new programmes and activities, and in training other teachers in the mastery of Visual Thinking Strategies.

Since the 2013-2014 academic year, the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya has been participating in the Tàndem Schools project. A long-standing collaboration with the Institut Escola Arts that aims to enrich the educational experience, the quality of learning and the improvement of academic results through art and heritage.

The art of speaking
We learn language through art and visual thinking strategies (VTS). This programme is the result of collaboration between the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya and the Servei d'Educació al Llarg de la Vida del Departament d'Educació de la Generalitat de Catalunya.
Its aim is to promote the teaching of languages in adult schools.







Connected. Let's make a project
First edition, academic year 2021-2022
This 2-year pilot programme aims to strengthen the collaboration between the museum and the educational community. The idea is to learn how to use the museum and its collections as a space and a reference resource to develop research projects through the arts on any topic.
Promoted by the ICUB and the Education Consortium, In Residence. Artists at the Schools is an educational proposal in which an artist conceives a new artistic project of his/her own to be developed with a group of secondary school pupils and one of the city’s cultural institutions, in this case the museum.
The museum’s education team has been participating in the program in mediation in collaboration since the 9th edition with the A Bao A Qu Association, which is part of the team that devised the program. The whole process is shared through a series of blogs that you can consult. We encourage you to read the museum blog article What's an artist like you doing in a school like this? about the experience in this project.
In Residence. Creators at Barcelona Schools was honoured with the 2016 Education Award at the 33rd edition of the awards presented by the Catalan Association of Art Critics.
