Whether you live in Portugal with your children or you care about lifelong training, education is about much more than attending the best schools. From economic to technological development, or from social cohesion to personal fulfillment, the improvement of academic achievements is essential to move the country forward.

That doesn’t mean you won’t find the best schools in Portugal, because you will. As a matter of fact, we have 4 of the best business schools in the world.

But Portugal can provide you with a plethora of options regarding education and upskilling. And the Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR) is also providing funds for education establishments, training, and adult qualifications.

So, how does our education system work? And how can YELLOW Portugal help you or your children? Let’s find out!

Education: from pre-school to higher education

Even though pre-schooling is optional, this is the axis of a successful lifelong education, available for children between the ages of 3 and 5.

Compulsory schooling lasts for 12 years. It is divided into three cycles and upper-secondary education – that’s when different courses are available according to students’ preferences and vocations.

For parents looking for high-quality, multicultural education, there are many international schools, with a wide range of curricula options. This is actually the best option for expats since these schools are clustered around expat hubs like Lisbon or Porto.

But what if you’re looking to improve your skills?

Lifelong training? You’ve come to the right place!

Improving skills is something we care very much about. And the next Multiannual Financial Framework 2021-2027 is particularly focused on that, as a way to promote an inclusive digital future.

Because of that, we partnered with GROW Academy, by ESTRATEGOR, a professional and skilled team dedicated to the up- and reskilling of adults. GROW Academy has been in the market for 25 years and they are experts in providing tailored training for individuals and companies!
