Colégio Visconde de Porto Seguro was founded by the German community in 1878 and, since its inception, it has valued one of the main attributes of humanity—the power to experience constant transformations by educating children and young people.
Even with the significant changes that have taken place over time in society and in the world, Porto has outdone itself, becoming a reference in Education. In more than a century of history, our greatest mobiliser has always been people: students, parents, teachers, counsellors, principals and so many collaborators who pass daily through our gates and make us reach a place we are proud of—a school that respects its roots, works with excellence in the present and offers its students wings for the future.
In current times, the contemporary world is redesigned, much more connected and challenging. We are facing the 4th Industrial Revolution and, at the same time, the era of multiple talents. Regarding Basic Education, international trends and the new Brazilian Common Curriculum Framework point to the need for new learning methods for the 21st century.
In this context, a modern curriculum design involves not only the interdisciplinary interweaving of different areas with their learning goals, but also affective bonds, hybrid methodologies, the use of new learning spaces and resources with technology, as well as innovative actions and tailored assessments.
The mission of Colégio Visconde de Porto Seguro is to offer learning paths so that each student develops multiple talents in an all-round education. This, in turn, encompasses the fundamental concepts of different areas of knowledge, emphasising language learning, global connections, sustainability, socioemotional intelligence, and digital education. All this so that our students can be successful in putting into practice ideas and projects that shape, with excellence, a better tomorrow for all.
Porto is open to the whole world.
Let’s go on together!
