Land School emphasizes social and emotional learning as part of a holistic education. Students develop communication, self-awareness, self-control, adaptability, critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration. The programs support students' social and emotional needs. The school fosters a global mindset and aims to prepare students to live and work anywhere in the world. It emphasizes public speaking, teamwork, leadership, and diplomacy through activities such as Land Talks and Model United Nations.
Personalized pedagogical guidance is provided by qualified professionals. The school also offers social-emotional support from trained staff. This combination supports students to excel in both curricular and extracurricular pursuits.
The school provides bilingual instruction in English and Portuguese. Students achieve native-level fluency in both English and Portuguese. Spanish and French are offered as extracurricular languages. English as an Additional Language (EAL) support is available via a club for students not yet at the expected English proficiency, with participation identified and recommended by the pedagogical team.
Academic knowledge alone is not sufficient for success in the 21st century. To ensure a happy and fulfilling life, students must understand the environment they live in and navigate it effectively. Skills such as communication, self-awareness, self-control, adaptability, critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration are essential for personal and professional success. Our programs go beyond academics to develop these future-focused skills while supporting students' social and emotional needs. We teach students to care for their bodies; physical well-being positively affects mental well-being, academic results, and individual performance, and students adopt a healthy, active lifestyle.
Land School, part of Gurilândia Schools and Inspired Education Group, opened in 2019 in Salvador, Bahia, as an expansion of Gurilândia International School. It provides bilingual instruction in English and Portuguese and integrates the Brazilian national curriculum with international programs.

Land School operates two campuses in Salvador: Land Federação (about 6,000 m²) and Land Pituba (about 18,000 m²). Facilities include science laboratories, a cinema laboratory, a music room, a Maker Space, and a library. Pituba has 32 classrooms and advanced spaces. Extracurriculars include robotics, Model United Nations, a Student Film Festival, Olympiads, and Thematic Symposium, with global exchange through Inspired Global Summer Camps.
