High School

Through a dynamic blend of internal and external assessments, including Cambridge Professional Assessments, IGCSE, DELE, academic Olympiads and online mock exams, students are empowered to showcase their knowledge and skills. We track development with GPA, progress reports and regular parent–student–teacher conferences.

Student Learner Pathways Portfolios highlight individual journeys and aspirations. Talent shines in exhibitions, science fairs, arts performances and student-led events. Annual ceremonies honour leadership, academic excellence and community contributions, while a vibrant feedback culture, driven by NPS surveys and student voice initiatives, ensures every learner’s progress is valued and celebrated.

Students develop leadership and teamwork through dynamic clubs, Model United Nations and competitive sports teams. Socioemotional growth is nurtured by the Dialogues and Wellbeing program, which builds resilience, empathy and mindfulness. The Round Square IDEALS and Cambridge Learner Profile ensure learners leave as well-rounded, resilient, confident and capable young adults, ready to leave a positive mark into the world.

Booster programmess in writing, languages and study skills ensure students are fully prepared for both Brazilian and international university admissions. Global citizenship flourishes through transformative exchange programmes with Round Square and ISP, while community engagement is fostered via university workshops and participation in internal and external fairs.

In English, learners reach C1 or C2 proficiency, as demonstrated by their performance in Cambridge English Assessment exams in Years 9 and 11. This level of mastery enables them to communicate fluently, analyse complex texts and express nuanced ideas with confidence in academic and real-world contexts.

In Spanish, students attain a B2 level, certified by the DELE exam, equipping them to engage in sophisticated conversations, understand detailed written material and participate actively in multicultural environments.

Alongside, students continue to refine their Portuguese, mastering advanced oral and written communication in alignment with national standards.

In Summer Programmes in the UK, students immerse themselves in college life, forging friendships with peers from every corner of the globe. Exchange Programmes in Colombia challenge students to adapt quickly, collaborate and build connections that last well beyond their stay.

Round Square Conferences in Argentina and the UAE invite students to debate, tackle real-world problems and champion environmental action.

Estudios do Meio take learning outside, with hands-on research in places like Ilha do Cardoso, Salvador and Foz do Iguaçu. Students question, reflect and apply their knowledge in the field.

At Harvard, Global Achievers dive into leadership, politics and global citizenship, developing practical skills that set them apart. Every year, students also join ISP’s International Learning Opportunities for Students, connecting with peers worldwide in vibrant, multicultural and multilingual settings.

A dedicated counsellor guides each student in building a personalised study plan, whether their goal is to enter Brazil’s top public universities or prestigious institutions abroad. Our partnership with Sistema Poliedro provides leading preparation for national entrance exams, while the ISP Future Pathways programme and Unifrog platform, along with tools including CommonApp, UCAS, CAO, Studielink and Parcoursup, offer expert guidance.

Students benefit from one-to-one counselling, psychometric testing, workshops on applications and interviews, and opportunities to connect with global admissions officers through university fairs and networking events.
