Welcome to CJD International School, established in Porto during the 2023/2024 academic year.
From the beginning, our mission has been to go beyond being just another international school. We set out to offer an international program while embracing our distinctively Portuguese roots, backed by over 90 years of experience from our Portuguese school.
At CJD, we envision a truly multicultural environment where students from around the world come together. Currently, we are proud to serve students from over 50 countries—a diversity that enriches our community and challenges us to grow. We offer the Cambridge Program, certified by the prestigious University of Cambridge, guiding our students through an academic journey that culminates in IGCSE, AS, and A-Level exams. These globally recognized qualifications are a testament to the high standards of our students’ education. Additionally, they can earn the AICE diploma, another highly regarded certification, particularly in countries like Portugal.
Our aim is to create a vibrant, diverse, and inclusive school environment where respect, acceptance, and happiness are central to every student’s experience. We are committed to fostering a love for learning while preparing students for future success by teaching the values of resilience, empathy, teamwork, hard work, critical thinking, and global citizenship.
At CJD, we believe in strong partnerships with families, working together to support students as they pursue their passions and build pathways to a successful future. Our continuous improvement is reflected in the enhancement of our space, the development of innovative projects, and the expansion of our services. We strive to be more than just ordinary—together, we are extraordinary!
