Our mission statement is “In a caring, innovative, and inspirational environment, we nurture our learners with values, life skills, and knowledge, enabling each of them to succeed and transform the world”. The principles of learning at Pinheiros represent our core beliefs about learning and our learning community.
Our school programmes support enduring and meaningful learning experiences. We offer a Tiny Tots Programme (for learners aged from 18 months old – 3 years old), the IB PYP (for learners aged from 3-11 years old), a self-designed Middle Years with the “4 Peaks” (Passion, Project, Peer and Play) at the core and IGCSE courses in some subjects.
We offer the IB Diploma for all learners in Years 11 and 12 (for learners aged from 16-18 years old). All programmes draw from IB philosophy and practice, promoting agency, inquiry and problem solving.
