We are a state approved private school that incorporates a highly effective academic experience and quality education for all children. This private school goes from nursery to 9th grade providing a challenging academic environment since its establishment in 1982, consisting of the same school directors since then. ColégioAtlântico with almost 1000 students is located in a working class neighborhood in Seixal, a short distance from the capital city, Lisboa. A 20 minute train ride, across the Tagus river will give you access to the cosmopolitan lifestyle of a modern European city with all its social and cultural attractions. But if you prefer a boat ride then in 30 minutes and just a few minutes away, you can walk to the downtown area where many shops and cafés will be at your disposal.
Furthermore, not far from our school, in the opposite direction, towards the sunny village of Sesimbra, there are some magnificent beaches, great for hours of fun. The conclusion remains the same.
