The Real Madrid Foundation and Fundación Cajastur renew their alliance to continue promoting the Sensory Schools
The football and basketball project promotes the inclusion of boys and girls with hearing disabilities through sports.
The Real Madrid Foundation and Fundación Cajastur have renewed their collaboration agreement to ensure, for the third consecutive year, the continuation of the Sensory Schools for football and basketball, a pioneering project jointly initiated by both entities that promotes the inclusion of boys and girls with hearing disabilities through sports.
The renewal of the agreement was formalized at the Ciudad Real Madrid by Emilio Butragueño, director of Institutional Relations at Real Madrid, and Carlos Siñeriz de Paz, general director of Fundación Cajastur, reaffirming the commitment of both institutions to an educational model that places equal opportunities and full participation of all children at the core of its activities.
Innovative initiative
The Sensory Schools are part of an innovative initiative jointly created by the Real Madrid Foundation and Fundación Cajastur with the aim of fostering real inclusion in sports practice. Through the modalities of football and basketball, the project adapts the Foundation's social sports methodology to the needs of the participants, incorporating communication tools such as Spanish sign language, as well as various communicative adaptations on the court and field that allow participants to operate with as much autonomy as possible.
Beyond sports learning, the sensory schools offer participants an opportunity that, in many cases, they did not have until now: to practice sports in an educational, normalized, and adapted manner according to their needs, becoming part of a team and sharing the same sports experience as any other boy or girl.
