Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Parents, teachers and the Senior Leadership Team together form a team who work side-by-side to promote liaison between families, the school and the community. The PTA engages in dialogue to foster interpersonal relations between community members, promotes the communication of the school's educational projects and philosophy, supports the work of our children and brings social, professional and environmental institutions into the school. Funds from events such as International Day, Festa Junina, Uniform Swap Bazaar and Toys Bazaar are used to support charity projects created and led by students as well as lectures organised for the school community with the objective of raising awareness on a variety of topics. The Representative Committee is formed by President, Vice-President (Head of School), Members and Collaborators.

St. Nicholas School Pinheiros is a Brazilian IB World School offering the full IB continuum across two campuses, Pinheiros and Alphaville. It serves learners from early childhood to late adolescence, with Tiny Tots (18 months–3 years) in a play-based inquiry approach, the Primary Years Programme (PYP) for ages 3–11, the Middle Years Programme (MYP) for 11–16, and the Diploma Programme (DP) for 16–18, which leads to Cambridge IGCSE as a pathway. The MYP features the four Peaks core—Passion, Project, Peer and Play—and a homegrown curriculum aligned with IB philosophy. Languages taught include English, French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish, and first-language instruction at Diploma level is offered in these languages. Facilities include modern classrooms, Science and Technology Laboratories, well-stocked libraries, recreational areas, outdoor spaces and an on-site pool across both campuses. A structured sports program and Inter-House events accompany academics. The DP core (TOK, CAS, Extended Essay) anchors graduation; more than 90% of Year 12 graduates earn a bilingual IB Diploma.
