The Santa Rosa de Lima School is a Primary and Pre-primary school and is located in the Rosales neighborhood, in El Palmar, 8 kms from Murcia. It is a neighborhood with low buildings and small houses. The cultural and socio-economic environment is low. This results in poor motivation to pursue higher education and difficulties for some students to bring the necessary material for school activities. The manual professions predominate. Most parents work in the field, especially immigrants, the rest are usually bricklayers, mechanics, or be unemployed. Mothers do not usually work outside the home. There are security problems due to the high marginality of the neighborhood.

The Ceip Santa Rosa de Lima has been witnessing over the years an evolution and a radical change in the personal, economic and racial characteristics of its students. Especially, it is the last years, which completely overturn the characteristics and needs of our school, due to the change in the profile of the families who attend school. Currently, our school population consists of about 180 students (aprox. 90%  are foreigners (mostly of Moroccan origin), the rest  are considered socially disadvantaged families and / or gypsy students. This circumstance means that a special educational intervention is necessary to acquire the vehicular language as soon as possible, in order to achieve the objectives established in the teaching. In this sense, changes in the methodology are being carried out towards greater inclusion in classrooms and project work.

The school was founded as a primary school but it has undergone educational system transformations in the course of time; it served as a secondary education institution in 1999-2019 but was turned into a primary school again in 2017.

Since 2004 the School has belonged to the association called Rodzina Szkół im.Jana Pawła II which gathers educational institutions following values present in Pope John Paul II`s teachings. We believe that holistic development of students based on humane values represented by our Patron can be achieved thanks to making students familiar with the works of  Karol Wojtyła (i.e. John Paul II)  and the author`s figure himself, developing versatile students` interests -  intellectual, artistic, sports and recreational as well as touristic.Students have the opportunity to join the school choir, Tibi Papa, take part in competitions dedicated to the poetry of John Paul II organized by our teachers, join team sports clubs etc. The students participate in events dedicated to national holidays and are taught to follow traditions and remember Polish patriots, artists and writers and important historical events.

Szkoła Podstawowa nr 15 has joined the European program for schools under the auspices of WHO Europe, European Comission and the European Council-we joined the network of schools promoting health and well-being of students, educators and administration. The students and staff learn how to live a healthy life and to create healthy environment  as well as encourage parents to get involved in the process.

Our staff  try to educate conscious and responsible future citizens of Poland and we stress the importance of ecology in contemporary world for the sake of  present and future generations. With this idea in mind the stuff encourages students to take active part in projects focused on environment and ecology. During the Gimnazjum era , our students participated in erasmus+ project entitled “Be Healthy, Be Natural, Be Smart”which concerned improving various aspects of health and stressed the importance of protecting the environment and using natural resources.
