Welcome to the website of St. Dominic’s International School. St. Dominic’s International School (SDIS) is a highly respected and well known international school, and is the only school in Portugal authorised to offer all three of the International Baccalaureate Programmes, Primary (PYP), Middle (MYP), and the Diploma (DP). These three programmes mean that we have a rigorous, coherent and internationally validated programme. The school is fully accredited by the Council of International Schools (CIS) and the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC). SDIS is a private, non-selective, co-educational day school serving students aged 3 to 18 years in the international community, through the medium of English. We currently have 30 different nationalities amongst our student population and some 18 nationalities amongst our faculty, making us a genuinely international school. Our commitment to the IB and the delivery of a relevant and progressive educational programme has been at the core of our work for many years. Educating the whole child is fundamental to our approach and SDIS has a strong tradition not only in traditional academic subjects but in the performing arts and community service. We also recognise the unique skills of knowledge required for a complex, rapidly changing world by providing for an interdisciplinary and holistic approach to learning. SDIS is a purpose built facility making effective use of both technology and space. We provide a comprehensive curriculum delivered in English with qualified teachers and additional support through our English as an Additional Language Team and our Special Educational Needs Department for those that need it. The SDIS community is proud of our school and we invite you to explore the pages of this website and look forward to your visit and welcoming you to our community.
