About King’s College School, Cascais

KING’S COLLEGE SCHOOL, ONE OF THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS IN THE WORLD, IS OPENING ITS DOORS IN CASCAIS, PORTUGAL. THE SCHOOL COMES WITH A 50-YEAR HERITAGE OF ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE INSTILLED FROM THE KING’S COLLEGE SCHOOLS GROUP.

King‘s College School, Cascais is an international school offering a truly global education and is the only school in Lisbon to offer the full world-renowned Cambridge curriculum up until Year 11 (age 16) and then culminate with the International Baccalaureate Diploma programme in Years 12 & 13 (age 16-18).
The school will offer the highest quality modern facilities, ensuring that students benefit from a learning environment that has been designed for how students learn in the modern day. Facilities include football pitches, tennis courts, padel courts as well as dance, drama, and art studios.
King’s College School joins other King’s Group schools in Spain, Panama, Latvia and soon The Bahamas and Egypt. King’s Group schools have provided children with a rigorous and broad British and international education since 1969 with a focus on developing thoughtful and knowledgeable young people. The success of the group comes from recruiting teachers with the skills and experience to turn the curriculum into dynamic lessons that ignite the imagination.
The King’s belief that child-centred, exploratory learning teaches students to think, question and explore new ideas, complements lnspired’s forward-thinking learning approach.

OUR APPROACH IS DEFINED BY SUPPORTIVE ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE AND THE EXPLORATION OF LIFE SKILLS TO DEVELOP STUDENTS’ SELF-CONFIDENCE AND SELF-ASSURANCE.

We do this by delivering a focus on the individual and offering a broad curriculum based on the three pillars. Academics are at the centre of our approach but are also complemented equally by Performing Arts and Sport. This rich curriculum ensures that every student can discover their passions and develop their skills. Students are encouraged and supported to excel across all areas, even those they find more difficult.

ROLE SUMMARY:

King’s College School, Cascais is one of the recent additions to the Inspired Group. The College is currently open to Year 9 and will be opening Year 10 next year. Pupils primarily study the Cambridge International curriculum but will be offering IGCSEs from other examination boards as well. When Year 12 opens in September 2026, the school will be running the International Baccalaureate.
The College has fast established a reputation for excellence in Portugal and is set to become one of the most highly prized education schools not only in Portugal but beyond. Its location in one of the most prized districts in Portugal together with its unrivalled facilities and outstanding staff has led to it’s remarkable growth in its student roll to 704 students this year (a growth of 55% from the previous year).
The College will launch its new boarding provision in 2024. Facilities include provision for up to 50 pupils, all situated within the College walls on a campus above the main secondary building with stunning views of the Sintra mountains and the Atlantic coast. Boarders and boarding staff will have access to the school facilities including a 25m swimming pool, tennis and padel courts, gyms, basketball courts, dance and music facilities and 5G astroturf for multiple sports including football and rugby.
This is an exciting time to join the team as we are designing our growth roadmap and new staff will be able to actively participate in this project.
While this is an organisation committed to academic excellence, we believe that this is only possible if we are also committed to the personal and professional growth of our staff.
