Our friendly, well-established school started with five pupils and has grown over the last 40 years into a united international community of 350 children from over 40 nationalities.

One of our purposes here at IPS Cascais is to create Responsible Citizens, pupils who demonstrate respect, empathy, and compassion for others. We aim to foster an understanding of why values of community are important and thus provide opportunities for our pupils to support their community in school, at home, and in the wider world.
