Excellence in Global Education
Explore the academic excellence offered by Prime School International, strategically located in privileged areas across Portugal – Cascais, Lisbon, and Sintra. As a prominent member of the global Cambridge International educational network, present in over 160 countries, our schools have gained international recognition over the years. At Prime School International, we offer a complete educational journey, from early childhood at the age of 3 to adulthood at 18.
During the foundational years, from ages 3 to 13, covering primary education and the early years of secondary education, students have the option to choose between two distinct pathways: the Cambridge curriculum, taught exclusively in English, or a bilingual approach that integrates Portuguese, promoting linguistic proficiency across various subjects. Distinguished by its innovative approach, education at Prime School International transcends conventional paradigms. Both our Cambridge curriculum and technical programmes establish strong academic foundations, opening doors to prestigious universities worldwide.
As students progress between ages 14 and 16, entering Year 10, they reach a pivotal stage: to follow the highly regarded Cambridge pathway, with globally recognised assessments such as IGCSE, or opt for the Prime Technical Curriculum. This specialised curriculum emphasises practical and technical education, offering focused tracks including Sports Management, Art and Design, Business, and Hospitality. Upon reaching ages 16 to 18, during Year 12 and Year 13, students have the freedom to tailor their educational experience. They can choose A Levels or explore more specialised pathways. The latter option includes areas such as Sports Management, Art and Design, Business, and Hospitality, preparing students for higher education focused on applied skills.
In addition to our physical campuses, Prime School International extends its reach through online support via our educational hubs, fostering connectivity within our international community both in Portugal and globally.
