JOURNEY TODAY

We are an international school for students aged 3 to 18, offering a dynamic learning journey that begins with the excellence of the British Curriculum and culminates in the prestigious International Baccalaureate.

Admissions at our school is more than a process—it’s an invitation to join a vibrant, welcoming community. Your child will grow in confidence, build meaningful connections, and develop the curiosity, resilience, and global mindset needed to thrive in an ever-changing world.

As one of our founding families, you play a pivotal role in the establishment and culture of our new school. Your involvement will be instrumental in shaping the vibrant community and a nurturing learning environment that we can all take pride in. Our admissions team is dedicated to providing the assistance and guidance you may require. If you have any questions, need further information, or wish to book a tour of the exceptional school grounds, please get in touch.

SHAPING OUR COMMUNITY

THE ADMISSIONS PROCESS

Our Admissions team reviews applications on a “rolling admissions” basis, and therefore, there is no application deadline, and assessments may take place throughout the academic year. Applications for The Lisboan are open now for the 25/26 academic year, up to and including year 10. You may register your interest for the following academic year at any time and you will be contacted upon submitting an enquiry.

If a seat is not available for your child in a given academic year, we kindly ask that you submit a new application for the following year, along with any updated reports and documentation. This ensures that we have the most accurate and current information to review for the next admissions cycle.

Applications must be submitted online.
