Are you passionate about education and, just like us, do you dream of a better and more peaceful world? Then come join our team  

With more than 50 years of experience in the sector and presence in several Brazilian regions, we are a network of bilingual international schools with a lot of Brazilianness. We are in full expansion, which enables good growth opportunities for our team. With a curriculum that combines the best pedagogical practices and educational technologies in the world, we have become a benchmark in bilingual international education.

We are a network of welcoming and inclusive schools whose mission is to contribute to a future of peace, unity, and collaboration among all peoples through education. We educate lifelong learners who have an international mindset and are able to solve challenges that impact the life and well-being of the community. So, much more than just good students, we want them to learn from an early age to respect differences and make informed decisions. And that they appreciate different cultures and value their own origin. 

This is what we believe. This is our essence. And we will be very happy if you come to be part of our story.
