Escola Pátio da Inês

Growing with Values,
Learning with the World

Escola Pátio da Inês is located in Marinha Grande. Its educational offer covers children from nursery through to the end of Primary (Years 1–4).

It educates curious, empathetic and responsible children. It forms independent, motivated pupils—free to learn and protagonists of their own journey, with a strong sense of citizenship and openness to the world.

About the School

At Colégio Pátio da Inês, every child receives individualised support in a caring yet demanding environment to reach their full potential. “Grow with Values, Learn with the World” guides our practice: we balance academic skills with humanistic values, nurturing curiosity, creativity, autonomy and responsibility. Using active methodologies, and in partnership with families and the local community, we provide a safe, stimulating space to grow, learn, collaborate and care, for oneself, for others and for the environment.

What distinguishes us

Escola Pátio da Inês follows a cooperative, multidisciplinary pedagogical model grounded in three pillars: Emotional Education, Arts Education and Science Education.

We place the pupil at the centre of learning, preparing them for the world. We prioritise digital literacy, cultural enrichment, and the active promotion of health and wellbeing. We invest early in children’s communicative proficiency in English. We are a Cambridge Educational Partner and a Cambridge Preparation Centre for English Qualifications.
