Classroom 15 of Vila-seca has completed the 2025-2026 academic year with a performance that opens doors to the future of its students. A total of 11 students have closed a key chapter that will allow them to face the labor market or continue their education.

Today, Thursday, June 18, the Municipal Training and Employment Center ‘Antic Hospital’ was the setting for the closing ceremony, with the distinguished presence of the deputy mayor, Manuela Moya, and the education inspector, Esther Sanz, accompanied by councilors, teachers, family members, and institutional representatives.

What is Classroom 15 and who is it aimed at?

An adapted learning space

Classroom 15 is a Shared Schooling Unit (UEC) that offers an educational alternative for students who have difficulties integrating into the traditional school system. It provides an adapted Secondary Education (ESO) focused on the basic competencies established by the Department of Education.

This initiative makes it easier for these students to have an educational path more suited to their needs, avoiding them being left out of the system and opening up more opportunities for work and academic life.

Funding and institutional support

Classroom 15 is a project jointly funded by the Vila-seca City Council and the Department of Education of the Generalitat of Catalonia. This institutional collaboration is key to maintaining a service that, while unnoticed, is essential for many young people in the town.

The Ramon Barbat and Vila-seca high schools provide the students and also actively participate in the monitoring and educational integration of the students.

The closing ceremony: a moment to celebrate and look forward

Institutional and family presence

The deputy mayor, Manuela Moya, presided over the event, showing emotion and recognizing that “today is a very special day.” She encouraged the students to continue their education and not lose sight of their goals.

In addition, the event included participation from municipal bodies, teachers, and family members who shared a moment of gratitude and satisfaction for the young people’s effort.

The impact on the students

The 11 students who have completed this year come from the two high schools in the municipality and now have greater ease entering the labor market or continuing their studies. A step that may seem small but marks a significant milestone in their lives.

The adapted training at Classroom 15 is not just an academic matter: it is an open door to a future that once seemed closed.

How does Classroom 15 work and what does it offer?

Methodology and adapted content

Classroom 15 champions an alternative learning approach that adjusts to the specific needs of the students. Basic competencies are worked on, but with flexibility and personalized support.

This enables young people to advance in their studies without being trapped in a system that often does not consider the personal or social difficulties some experience.

Social and educational benefits

The project helps reduce school dropout and improve educational inclusion. With 11 students finishing the course, Vila-seca demonstrates that there are real alternatives for those who do not fit the conventional path.

The results are seen in the motivation and the capacity for social and work insertion that these young people gain thanks to Classroom 15.

It may not be the news that headlines, but for them it is a life-changing shift.

If you wonder what happens after this, the answer is that the real work begins: continuing education or getting down to work. And this, often, is a path full of more challenges than simply finishing Secondary Education.
