About Us Learning Pathways

Learning and growing together

A unique and serene location between beach and city

Nestled between beautiful Carcavelos beach and historic Lisbon, St. Julian’s stunning campus boasts one of the most impressive locations in Europe. A truly unique blend of natural beauty and urban convenience.

At the heart of our school sits an elegant 18th-century palace surrounded by gardens, sports facilities, woodland areas, and fresh sea air. Our vast grounds and fantastic location provide endless opportunities to enrich your child’s education.

Surf, rugby, football, cricket, athletics to name just a few, plus the joy of Forest School, a mud kitchen and pond-dipping for the little ones.
