Bankgata Middle School is the oldest school in Bod\u00f8 and is situated in the city center. As such, it combines the traditional concept of spacious hallways and classrooms with modern teaching practice. The school teaches eighth through tenth grade and receives students from two different primary schools. There are approximately 300 students at the school, spread across the three grade levels. Diversity is a big part of the school’s everyday life, as it receives all new arrivals to the city from other countries and teaches introductory Norwegian.<\/p>\n

Bankgata Middle School is a learning organization where knowledge, multiculturalism and creativeness are key elements. The first impression is often made by exploring the corridors and seeing all the wonderful student art that decorate our interior.<\/p>\n

The school\u2019s vision is Green, alive and active \u2013 we create the future together.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Green<\/strong>: We will all make responsible and ethical decisions and be environmentally conscious. Our actions and choices are important. We will protect life on earth both locally, regionally and globally.<\/p>\n

Alive<\/strong>: We value different talents and qualities. We will be dynamic, creative and bold.<\/p>\n

Active<\/strong>: The students will be active in the learning process. They will be challenged cognitively and physically, preferably at the same time.<\/p>\n

Physical activities should be integrated in the teaching in order to increase the students\u2019 pulse and making the teaching less abstract, connecting the learning material with specific practical tasks.<\/p>\n
