About Us

The Lisboan School welcomes children aged 3 to 18 into a world class education enriched with the true spirit of Lisbon. In 2025, we will offer places for ages 3 to 14, and each year we will grow with our students, adding a new year group annually until our full Secondary School programme is complete in 2028.

Our forward-thinking academic programme combines the globally renowned Cambridge International Framework and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme. This guides students through a rigorous and relevant learning journey that balances academic excellence with personal growth.

A School in the Heart of Lisbon

From our historic home in the Alcântara district, we provide children with a learning experience that emphasises innovation, sustainability and global citizenship. Our students gain the skills, knowledge and ambition to thrive in the twenty first century.

Learning is further enriched by the Artemis Experience which is our dynamic co-curricular programme offering opportunities to explore personal passions, develop new skills, and connect with Lisbon’s vibrant culture and landscape.

A Kind and Inclusive Community
The Lisboan is a non-selective, inclusive and supportive school community. Our purpose as educators is to enable children to flourish in their time with us, in their future studies, and throughout their lives. We nurture curiosity, motivation and confidence, empowering every student to discover their purpose and become the best version of themselves.
