Academics
Beacon promotes rich learning experiences in Portuguese and English, thus recognizing both languages as a means of communication throughout the program.
Through the International Baccalaureate Organization and its seal as an IB Continuum School, Beacon adopts the Primary Years Programme (PYP) for Early Childhood and Elementary School, the Middle Years Programme (MYP) in Middle School and offers the Diploma Programme (DP) for High School students. These programs are aligned with our school's values and mission.
We assist our students in their self-knowledge process, providing better resources for making conscious and autonomous choices in both career and higher education.
The integration of the IB curriculum with the Brazilian curriculum offers Beacon students a rigorous academic program, recognized by the most qualified universities. In addition, the multiple activities conducted by University and Career Counseling in the school context foster education with diverse resources so that our students feel prepared to pursue higher education.
