learning pathways
If you choose the vmbo at SintLucas, you will be opting for an education consisting of general subjects with, in addition, a lot of attention to creative subjects.
Learning pathways
Within pre-vocational secondary education (vmbo), we offer three learning pathways with the profile Media, Design & ICT (MVI), namely: the middle-management vocational pathway, the mixed pathway, and the mixed theoretical pathway. After the general lower years in year 1 and 2, it is determined which of these three pathways suits you best, and you follow this pathway in year 3 and 4. The content of the MVI profile is different for each pathway.
Framework vocational course
This pathway is a practical programme, entirely focused on design and media. The vocational programme is more extensive than in the combined pathway. Besides Dutch, English, maths, physics and social studies, students gain further experience in video, internet, image and sound, animation, theatre technology, interactive design (e.g. websites and apps), graphic software, desktop publishing, sign, design, typography, page layout and photography. This learning route is a nice stepping stone to the MBO courses in media and design within SintLucas. Further learning at another MBO institution is of course also possible.
Mixed apprenticeship
For those who have little difficulty in learning and already want to acquire some vocational knowledge, the mixed pathway is a good choice. Here, learning alternates with doing. The programme consists of subjects such as Dutch, English, mathematics, physics, drawing, social studies, economics or history. In addition, art history and MVI (Media, Design and ICT) are on the curriculum. In MVI, pupils discover the possibilities of the Internet, video, photography, animation, images and sound. They also learn to design and work with various computer programmes. The mixed pathway links up well with MBO courses in design and media. You can also move on to another type of intermediate vocational programme.
Mixed course theoretical
This learning route is for pupils who have received a vmbo-t recommendation. If you follow this learning pathway, you will take exams in an extra theory subject: economics or history. After successful completion of the mixed learning programme, you will receive a diploma from SintLucas. If you pass the mixed learning pathway and therefore also the extra subject, we will apply for the diploma theoretical learning pathway. This diploma will then not bear the name of SintLucas. Our school arranges this through the state examination committee. You will receive this diploma during a festive presentation, usually in October.
