Senior pupils then study the IB Diploma Programme and many go on to higher education in the UK, Portugal, and other locations around the world.

A curriculum for post-IGCSE pupils was developed in the early 1990s with the provision of courses leading to the award of the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme.

This trend continued, and there are in excess of 550 pupils in the school, 50% of whom are from Portuguese families, 10% are British, and 40% from other backgrounds.

The school has a Student Council who represent the pupil body at public and ceremonial events.

The school received Green Flag status on 29 September 2009 for environmentally friendly practice.

The school participates in many national and international trips annually of sporting, charitable and cultural significance.
