A School with History,
a Promising Future

With over 50 years of history and thousands of students educated, Colégio Sá de Miranda is a benchmark in humanistic and innovative education in Portugal. We have been recognized for Excellence Practices in Positive Psychology, thanks to the transformative impact of our educational projects.

Our passion is teaching what truly matters—preparing our students for life with solid values and skills for a constantly changing world.

At the heart of our educational approach are principles such as love and care, active learning, continuous student motivation, stimulation of each child’s multiple intelligences, resilience education for 21st-century challenges, optimism, solidarity, respect for each child’s individuality, knowledge, and autonomy.

Here, every child is encouraged to believe in themselves and grow as the true author of their own story.
