Top 10 International School in Europe

At St. Julian’s we are proud to have offered a Bilingual Curriculum since 1935. This longstanding tradition helps students navigate an increasingly interconnected world while embracing both their local and global identities. Our distinctive approach, in a setting of spectacular beauty and history, has contributed to our ranking since 2022 for the Top 15 International School in Europe by Carfax and Spear’s Magazine also ranks us as a Top 10 Private School in Europe.

Bilingual Curriculum

Our curriculum promotes bilingualism and biculturalism, equipping students with the skills to navigate both Portuguese and international contexts. This balance strengthens students’ ability to adapt, preparing them for future academic challenges.

From ages 6 to 15, students enjoy a bilingual education before progressing to the IGCSEs (1-year programme), then a smooth transition into the International Baccalaureate (IB), Diploma or Career-related programme.
