St Julian's School

Founded in 1932, St. Julian’s is a highly successful British international school for children aged 3 to 18. It is a unique and special place in character, history and location. Known for academic excellence, there are 1,250 students from more than 60 nationalities across four school sections: Pre-Prep (ages 3 to 5), Prep (5 to 11), Secondary (11 to 18) and Bilingual (5 to 15). St. Julian's has been recognised for the third consecutive year as one of the top 15 private schools in Europe in the Schools Index published by Carfax Education, and for the second year running as one of the top 10 by Spear's. We follow the National Curriculum for England leading to IGCSEs and the IB Diploma and Careers-related Programme. We are accredited by the CIS (Council of International Schools), COBIS (Council of British International Schools), NEASC (New England Association of Schools & Colleges) and the Head is a member of HMC (The Heads' Conference). Situated between Lisbon and Cascais, St. Julian’s enjoys an idyllic location framed by beaches and pinewoods. The extensive campus boasts exceptional sports facilities and offers a diverse range of after-school clubs, from Nature Club, to ballet, to basketball and rugby. The School is about to embark on a €40 million building project over 5 years that will see significant enhancements to the existing site. New families often highlight our close-knit community as instrumental in easing transitions, making St. Julian’s a welcoming home for expatriates and locals alike.
