Description
Today St. Paul’s School has evolved to be a genuinely Anglo-Brazilian, bilingual and bicultural school, still offering a high quality education for its 1,100 pupils of all nationalities. The School is maintained by a non-profit Foundation and is registered with the educational authorities of the State of São Paulo according to Federal and State legislation as the Escola Britânica de São Paulo. The Foundation and the School are under the responsibility of a Board of Governors whose members are appointed by representatives (or trustees) of the British community. The overall task of the Board of Governors is to ensure that the School runs successfully and smoothly in accordance with its stated aims. The Board of Governors meets approximately once per month and is responsible for overseeing general educational policy, development of infrastructure and financial control.The School occupies the same 1.8 hectare site acquired in 1927 and is situated in the leafy residential area aptly named Jardins. It seeks excellence and modernity in all contexts, including the provision of all services and amenities. The School’s facilities are constantly refurbished to the highest standards. The School is currently undergoing a major redevelopment project to build an underground sports centre and a new Academic Centre which will house the state of the art IT facilities, Library, Music and Art Studios and Science Laboratories for the Senior School.
The School also has an impressive theatre space and drama studio, music rooms, a Sixth Form Centre, an ecumenical place of worship, a football pitch, fully air-conditioned dining facilities, and an underground car park.
Today St. Paul’s School is a busy and hardworking place for pupils up to 18 years old and over 200 academic and administrative staff. Standards are high, as are expectations. The School has earned the reputation of being one of the foremost academic establishments of its type, capable of holding its own with the best in Brazil, Latin America and the UK.
