With our international perspective we provide a global education, helping students make connections to the local community or wider world. Overall, we encourage students to take appropriate risks in their formal and informal learning, fostering their sense of independence and responsibility. Personal growth develops resilience for the future.
Enrichment activities extend children’s learning through new experiences and opportunities that are key to academic success, personal and social development, wich will equip them for life.
We offer students an enrichment programme that is varied in activities, enabling them to participate in learning experiences that may not always fit into the curriculum. These activities provide learning experiences that develop their character, which encompasses the Shaper Profile, developing in the students the 6C’s of Compassion, Curiosity, Collaboration, Communicator, Courage and Global Citizenship.
As part of the secondary curriculum all KS3 and KS4 students have planned enrichment lessons. There are 2 core themes to these lessons: life skills and service learning. Life skills comprises a variety of opportunities for personal growth, and includes developing leadership skills, philosophy for life, yoga, first aid training, needlecraft, cooking, and study skills to name but a few areas of study. Service learning is a thread throughout each year group and each year group has an associated local charity with which they will work to establish opportunities for service learning and fundraising activities. The current charities that have these direct links with the School are Carcavelos Community Centre, Cercica, Centro Social Paroquial Nossa Senhora de Porto Salvo (CSPNSPS) and Semear.
