Sapientia Quod Faciendum Faciam | We do what must be done with wisdom. Cesário Verde International School. A world of opportunities.

The world has changed! And for the school to continue playing its differentiating role, it must change as well. Our mission is to ensure that our students develop an open mindset that allows them to be active local, national, and global citizens and individual growth, with the ability to apply knowledge and adapt acquired skills to an increasingly volatile world.

Here, we believe that stimulating creativity from an early age and developing essential skills such as the ability to question, make connections, innovate, create, solve problems, communicate, collaborate, and critically reflect, is the best way to prepare children and young people for the real world and for solving future challenges.

The true benefit of being an international school lies in the development of much deeper and lasting values such as tolerance, justice, responsible citizenship, empathy, self-awareness and growth, and respect for the environment. For all this, we rely on a school community that includes students, families, teachers, educators, and collaborators where respect and trust are vital values for CV to be a safe and inspiring place. A place where different perspectives are cherished, where an ethos of integrity is valued, and where caring for others is natural.

Our multilingual environment fosters the belief that in our differences, we all have similarities and that the effort to communicate allows us to achieve all our other goals. So, every day, we work to be better and better. How?

  • We embrace diversity, integration, and coexistence, working together for understanding;
  • We encourage each other to think critically, to work collaboratively and independently,
    acting responsibly and with authenticity and vulnerability so that we can realize our
    greatest potential and become lifelong learners;
  • We cultivate a tangible sense of civic and environmental responsibility rooted in community spirit, meaningful dialogue, and a strong sense of identity.
