How would you rate International Christian School of Cascais (ICSC)?
Very serious concerns about the quality of education at this school. They certainly do their best to keep the parents happy, but try to get involved, ask questions, see what your child is actually learning and you will be deeply disappointed. There is a reason why this school is much cheaper than other international schools in the Lisbon area. Trust me, it's not worth it.
I moved my daughter to ICSC School part way through year 7 as she had been very unhappy in her previous school. The school care was fantastic, the teachers really made it easy for my daughter to settle in and be part of the help her integrate into the class. Since settling in at school family providing extra support and activities to so many people have noticed such a positive change in my daughter she is now happy, confident in herself and loves learning. It would be fair to say that the change in my daughter is largely down to the support and effort of the teaching staff at who have right from day 1 made her feel part of the family. I can't thank staff enough for making a positive impact on my daughter’s life and setting her up for success in the future.
Amazing school with wonderful teachers. Because its small your kids get more attention. Definitely recommend it. My son goes there and he loves it.
My daughter has been a student there since September 2021 and I have nothing but positive things to say about them. They genuinely care about the children's well-being and they haven't stopped encouraging our little ones since day one. Highly recommended - regardless of religion
I love this school, they are a family for me ! The best of the word!
For us it was a great privilege for our daughter to study at the International Christian School of Cascais for the excellence of the teaching, the Christian commitment and the great love shown for us and for our daughter. Congratulations on the wonderful school. You excel in your work to keep the school at the highest level. Big hug and you definitely live in our hearts!
ICSC is a unique jewel, in that its greatest assets are its teachers and administrative staff. The staff and teachers at ICSC are diligent, thorough, and professional, embodying what you would expect from any school. I have and would recommend ICSC to anyone, especially if you are looking for a school that will meet your academic requirements, they work very hard to do this. However, if you are looking for a school that will help nurture your child to being a good and conscientious human being ICSC does this also, and that is not something that you can always get. It has been a pleasure interacting with this school, and we will miss this fine institution of learning.
International Christian School of Cascais is so much more than a school - it is a family. Students and teachers alike have a huge love and respect for one another, and there is an incredible sense of home when you walk through the doors. I have never worked with such a great, caring, supportive team who is always ready to go above and beyond for students, parents and fellow teachers. I highly recommend this school to anyone who is looking for a high-quality education from teachers who are passionate about what they do and provide not only great education, but also instill strong spiritual and moral values in their students!
I am writing this review to highly recommend the International Christian School of Cascais. We were lucky and blessed to find ISCS. They immediately took in our son and the whole family. I remember that first day he got off the bus and he said mom they really care about me. I knew right then we had made the correct choice. Our son had behavioral issues and was placed on a IEP and a behavioral IEP. ICSC did everything they could to help him. The patience and understanding that the school has is unmeasurable. Since moving from Portugal to California in July of 2020 he has had no behavioral issues and is off both of his IEP and he is getting straight A's in all his classes. I believe in my heart if it wouldn’t have been for ISCS doing everything that they did and how they went over and beyond we would still be having the issues with him today. I highly recommend the school to anyone. You truly become a family and they will go above and beyond for your child.
I was a High School student at ICSC, from 10th grade until graduation. Through my three years at ICSC, I had amazing experiences and made great friends. The faculty members, governing body, and students create an amazing community. All the lessons I learned there were essential to get me to the next chapter of my life. I am now attending Saint Louis University in the USA, and I look back with pride on my time at ICSC.

my two cousins are studying in that school. I was visiting Portugal for two months over there and I had the opportunity two see and meet the people in that school. I love the staff and the atmosphere that school has. Everyone is kind, polite, generous, and most importantly they have a passion of teaching. I can't thank them in of for all the help they have given to my two cousins. Hopefully I will go back to Portugal to stop by and say hello because truly they are remarkable.

my two nephews are studying there, less then a year ago I met the staff and school. The are heart warming people and the vibe in that place is not just a school, but a place where the teachers and students are pleased to learn and teach. Giving high values and morals that's the base of very school should have. thank you so much for all the support you guys give to my nephews.

I was a teacher at this school and I can only testify to a unique experience. Each student is treated as a whole and the subjects taught are only a part of the academic curriculum. Love and respect are also incorporated throughout their education at ICSC. I found that there was a constant relationship between the families and the school. As a school teacher and missionary, I felt the added responsibility of setting an example for these extraordinary children. The staff treats the students as though they were family. I learned so much from these students as well as from the colleagues with whom I worked side by side. This is a strong team of teachers and administration. I thank God for allowing me this opportunity.

Great and trusted establishment, I attended ICSC from my freshman year up until my senior year of high school and I am now fourtunate enough to be attending one of the best international universities in europe. ICSC has opened up so many great doors for me and the school community as a whole is something out of this world! It is also very important to bare in mind that ICSC is an international school, that can and will open up great doors for you internationally as long as you are also willing to put in the work! Loved my experience here x

Was a student at the school. Mixed feelings about my experiences there. The teachers are great, the students are awesome, but the governing body of the "establishment" is shocking . 10th graders are taught the same work as a 12th grader, and good luck getting your child into a university in Portugal .. p.s: not going to happen. Your child will be rewarded with an unrecognizable deploma. Rather give me the money and I'll tutor your child.
