CURRICULAR INTERDISCIPLINARITY
The teaching approach at Astoria International School in the Lower Secondary School benefits from interdisciplinarity among various curricular areas, which is essential for success in diverse learning experiences. That’s why it’s the best private school in Lisbon!
EDUCATION WITH PSYCHO-PEDAGOGICAL SUPPORT
In the Lower Secondary School, fundamental concepts and values for the socio-pedagogical development of AIS students are addressed, such as autonomy, critical thinking, and the ability to reflect on and question the world through group work, individual and collective projects, and other activities that align with our students’ interests.
BILINGUAL EDUCATION - CAMBRIDGE LOWER SECONDARY
AIS’s education prioritises communication and develops the five core language skills: Reading, Writing, Use of English, Listening, and Speaking.
The strategies used to develop these five areas are tailored to the age group and characteristics of each group, establishing AIS as the best private school in Lisbon.
The project and citizenship area plays a fundamental role in building globally aware and interculturally conscious citizens. Essential projects are developed to work on these themes.
SUPPLEMENTARY PROGRAMMES IN LOWER SECONDARY SCHOOL
Our Lower and Upper Secondary School students benefit from direct intervention by the Psychology and Guidance Office, working in collaboration with teachers and coordinators to support students. They are enrolled in programmes for study organisation, creative writing, and handwriting and spelling development.
These supplementary programmes include classes on study methods and personal organisation, support in Portuguese and Mathematics, activities for planning study time, reading and writing, problem-solving, note-taking, and test preparation.
