Grade 7, Grade 8, and Grade 9 represent three dynamic years in a learner’s education, building upon the foundations established in Primary School and defining the pathway towards Key Stage 4. Key Stage 4 is a two-year program culminating in IGCSE examinations.

Our Key Stage 3 curriculum is broad and balanced, offering all pupils the opportunity to build their skills and nurture their aspirations in preparation for the future. This stage typically caters to students aged 11–14 years. At our school, we follow the Cambridge International Assessment framework, ensuring a globally recognized standard of education.  

 For most subjects, students are taught in their form groups, which typically comprise 20–25 students representing a mixture of backgrounds and ability levels. All subjects are compulsory, except for foreign languages, where students can choose between Portuguese and French. The subjects taught at Key Stage 3 include:

1. Cambridge Lower Secondary English (0861);
2. Cambridge Lower Secondary English as a Second Language (0876);
3. Cambridge Lower Secondary Mathematics (0862);
