Join our Team

People matter: Exemplary education builds on positive relationships and learning communities that engage students in a variety of both academical and personal learning processes. The role of teachers to guide student learning has transformed significantly throughout the last decades towards a varied, collaborative and holistic approach focused on formative and constructivist learning processes. Technology offers new ways to enrich and personalize learning, and seamlessly extend the classroom.

United Lisbon is a modern and innovative international school where tomorrow matters; a school providing education inspired by and fit for the 21st century – and beyond; an education founded on rigorous standards of excellence, seamlessly integrating technology into the learning environment. We want our students to embrace the opportunities created in tomorrow’s world. We live the United philosophy: co-creating a learning ecosystem that bridges generations, disciplines and cultures; perpetual innovation in education; and the purpose of an equitable and sustainable world.
