Oeiras International School (OIS) is an IB World School [1] in Oeiras, a suburb of Lisbon, Portugal.
Overview
Established in 2010, the english-speaking school offers the International Baccalaureate program throughout all year groups. The school caters for students in Year 6 through to Year 13, having previously hosted only students in Years 7 through 12 during its inaugural academic year (2010/11).[2]
The school campus is based on the premises of a 17th-century palace,[2][3] the Quinta de Nossa Senhora da Conceição in Barcarena, Oeiras. The 5 hectare campus was newly refurbished in 2011, boasting a vast array of state-of-the-art amenities.[2] During its inaugural year (2010/2011), the school opened at temporary premises, located at Fundição de Oeiras,[4][5][6][7] but has since been located at its present campus.[2]
OIS has ambitious plans to become an tensor Eco-School and intends to promote Environmental Awareness and Social Responsibility with the provision of scholarships and community service.[5][6]
At a launch event held at Hotel Palacio in Estoril in 2010, the school's Principal described the school saying "OIS is committed to promoting quality education and values in a changing world, encouraging students to become responsible for their own learning. We will focus on intellectual rigour, helping all students to achieve their full potential".[8]
Motto
The school motto is Sapere Aude (Dare to Learn).[2]
