Learning for Life

Recognised as one of Portugal's most prestigious schools, and ranked among the Top 15 European schools by Carfax Education, St. Peter's International School builds on over 30 years of academic excellence. We provide outstanding academic preparation and personal growth opportunities for students aged 4 months to 18 years.

Our 37,000 m2 purpose-built campus is one of the finest in Portugal, featuring university-level science labs, technology-rich classrooms, multiple sports fields, dedicated arts studios, and a modern auditorium.

Expert teachers deliver a broad and rigorous curriculum across two pathways. Students may choose the Portuguese National Curriculum – where we consistently rank among the top schools nationally – or an international pathway combining the British education system with the globally recognised International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP). This unique academic offering, enriched by exceptional sports and arts programmes, ensures our students are fully prepared to thrive at the world's best universities.
