Introduction
International Sharing School opened in September 1980, in the Madeira Island, Portugal. In 2018 started the operation of the campus in Oeiras, Lisbon.
Offering an International Education based on the International Baccalaureate (IB) Framework, students at International Sharing School face a dynamic, challenging curriculum, taught by motivated teachers, focused in building a better world. The International Sharing School is IB-certified and therefore implements the learning components of the IB programmes (PYP, MYP and DP), combined and aligned with their own ethos and core values, offering an international, multicultural and multilingual environment where students feel integrated and motivated in successfully progressing in their academic studies.

2018
After 38 years of experience with the International Sharing School of Madeira, a new project, in Taguspark, Oeiras, Lisbon was incorporated in 2018.
The new campus is located in Oeiras Valley, a science and innovation technology park. Previously known as Colégio Taguspark (an all Portuguese school), the school shifted from a Portuguese curriculum to an international curriculum (based in the International Baccalaureate-IB program).
The International Sharing School in Taguspark is the one of the 2 only schools in Portugal to offer all three complete IB Programmes: Primary Years Programme (ages 3-10), Middle Years Programme (ages 11-16) and Diploma Programme (ages 17-18).
Taguspark was the first and still is the largest technological park in Portugal, founded in 1992.
