Beasain Instituto Publico (BIP) is located in Beasain
and it’s a school created after the fusion of three different public school
campuses: Alkartasuna, Loinazpe and Txindoki. The one
in which we study is Txindoki. It’s a high school for 16-18 year olds, we call this level bachillerato. There are
four different tracks: science, arts, technology and humanities. Our high
school is the only one around Goierri that gives the opportunity to study
arts. Moreover, there’s the option to study some lessons in English, such as
maths, economics, history, and geography. The name of this project is the
multilingual project.
Regarding the amount of people in
Txindoki, there are 167 students in the first year and 149 students in the second
year, plus 6 students in our special education/work training program for people
with disabilities. Our classes can have as few as 7 people and a maximum of 30.
Most have around 20-25 students.
As far as the people that comes to the
school is concerned, we can find people from Goierri county (which consists of
the towns of Lazkao, Idiazabal, Beasain, Ordizi, Zegama, Zerain, Zaldibi,
Segura, Mutiloa, Ihurre, Ataun), Tolosaldea county (which includes towns called
Tolosa, Ikaztegieta, Alegia…) and Urola county (Zumarraga, Legazpi, Urretxu…).
Taking into account that Txindoki is a high school, teenagers of 16, 17, and 18
years old come. Nevertheless, there’s also people older than 18 years old,
because they are doing the same school year again or because they want to study
to gain knowledge.
People normally graduate at the age of
18 after finishing the second course having passed all the subjects. After it
they give to you a degree assuring it.
In addition, there are some special
lessons apart from school to help you with the subjects that you find more
difficult. For example, maths. However, people that need more help or wanted to
know more about the subject take private lessons.
Finally, we adress our teachers with
their first name without using their last name. What’s more, we don’t use
“usted” and we speak in a more familiar language. However, respectfully.
