Seixal International School was born from the passion of two sisters—mothers and educators—who dreamed of a different school for their children. The school is a place where every child is seen, heard and valued. What began as a family project quickly became a close-knit family united by a common purpose: changing the world of education, one child at a time.
The school defines its Annual Plan of Activities (PAA) that includes meetings of Parents, General Meetings for the whole School Community, Teacher meetings, and General Staff meetings. The PAA also covers other activities throughout the year. Whether Portuguese-origin or otherwise, the Seixal International School celebrates the main calendar events with sensitivity to the cultures and religions of the community. These activities foster engagement among families and staff.
