Uni Bilingual School

The school aims to provide a learning environment that meets the specific needs and interests of each student, fostering the grounding of a bilingual education. It values transparency, commitment, sustainability, innovation, integrity, and simplicity, with a focus on developing intellectual autonomy and social awareness. The educational approach emphasizes play, interaction, and the exploration of various languages and cultures to help children build their personal and social identities.

The school delivers a bilingual curriculum from toddlers to Grade 5, utilizing an immersion method for younger students and transitioning to the Cambridge Framework (English, Maths, and Science) starting at age five. The academic programme integrates transdisciplinary units of knowledge and employs Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) to teach subject-specific content in English. Literacy is developed simultaneously in Portuguese and English, supported by reading platforms and a classroom library programme.

Students in Grade 5 may take the optional Cambridge Primary Checkpoint, which provides an international benchmark of performance and diagnostic feedback. Upon completion of the Cambridge stages, students receive statements of achievement and reports detailing their performance in English, mathematics, and science.

The school employs a framework of differentiated instruction to support a diverse community of learners. This approach allows teachers to provide various avenues for students to acquire content, process ideas, and develop skills regardless of differences in ability.

The school encourages prospective families to book a tour via its website to learn more about the admissions process. It maintains a straightforward relationship with parents through face-to-face meetings, parent meetings, and family days.

The school calendar is developed with the participation of the school community. The school operates with various schedule options for preschool, including morning, afternoon, and intermediate sessions.

The campus spans over 3,000 square metres and features a fully-equipped playground, a water park, a sports court, and a natural grass playground. Indoor facilities include a blackbox theatre, a canteen, a commercial kitchen, and multi-functional classrooms designed with flexible seating to support diverse learning experiences. The site is secured with biometric readers for employees and a comprehensive camera monitoring system.

The school offers extracurricular classes as part of its educational programme. These activities are designed to complement the core curriculum and support the development of students.
