Welcome to the VVIS site. The school continues to expand as more and more people choose to live in this friendly and attractive country, Portugal. In response to the growing demand, we have been able to extend the scope and variety of courses offered and the age range of enrolment.

VVIS caters for Key Stages 1 and 2 students up to Advanced Level offering a broad and balanced curriculum, based upon the individual needs and the high aspirations of the international community of the area. Class sizes are small, taught by highly qualified members of staff from diverse nationalities who have settled permanently in the region.

In addition to their main studies, all of our students have a choice of extra-curricular activities including Group and Individual Music Tuition, Subject Clubs and Sports, the most recent development being the Girls’ Football Squad. The school is committed to developing the interests of the students and will continue to increase the options of activities.

We endeavour to offer a ‘whole school’ approach through involving everyone in excursions to places of educational, social and sporting interest and in school events such as Sports Day, Christmas Concert and the Drama Production. The students also play an active role in charity events and social welfare. There is also a committee of highly active school members who form the Students’ Council.

This establishment has a very special and pleasant atmosphere all of its own. Visitors are most welcome to visit our premises. Please ring Carla Paralta, the School Secretary, on (+351) 282 697205 to arrange a suitable time.
