Founded by sisters Sonia and Laura—both experienced educators and mothers to seven children - the school was born from a shared desire to create an educational environment that truly values children’s individuality.

In 2017, the sisters made a bold decision: they gave up one of their homes to start the school. What began with just a handful of students has flourished into a vibrant bilingual pre-school and primary school that continues to grow each year. Now in its eighth year, SIS stands as a beacon of modern, values-driven education in Portugal.

What sets SIS apart is its commitment to the micro-school model, where small class sizes allow for personalised attention and a strong sense of community. The school combines project-based learning with a bilingual curriculum, placing equal emphasis on academic growth and social-emotional development.
