St. Dominic’s International School, Portugal

A 47-year-old IB Continuum school in the Cascais region originally founded by Irish Dominican Sisters. The school adopted the International Baccalaureate system in 1994 and all classes are taught in English, but all students also have Portuguese classes as second language. With students from over 40 different nationalities, SDIS is truly an international school. Since January 2010, SDIS is owned and managed by Veritas Educatio SA and over the last few years, the campus has seen several improvements as well as new buildings such as an Arts Centre and a building for the IB Diploma.
