AE Santos Simões · Guimarães, Guimarães
Outstanding English fluency results in the birthplace of Portugal. A culturally rich environment for children.
“Excellent reputation for English fluency in the North. They integrate the CLIL methodology seamlessly across subjects. The catch: Being in a historic center, the physical school buildings are older. If you want a brand-new campus, this isn't it.”
Guimarães is a UNESCO World Heritage city — the birthplace of Portugal. Charming, walkable, and deeply cultural. A wonderful place to raise children.
