Pop music icon Madonna, after purchasing a home in Portugal, began her vacation life on the Iberian Peninsula. She has been spotted multiple times in Portuguese cafes, restaurants, and bars, enjoying food and music with locals, praising the hospitality of the Portuguese people. She filmed the enchanting coastline of Comporta and a family running freely on horseback with a drone, captioning it: "This is Portugal, this is paradise." Of course, her move to Portugal is primarily to enroll her adopted son David Banda in a very prestigious football school in the area.
Portugal, as a member of the European Union, not only has investment potential but also boasts a globally recognized education system, with a high percentage of national investment in education relative to its GDP. Portugal is home to some of the oldest university towns in Europe, offers internationalized education, has an advanced educational system, and its degrees are recognized worldwide.
Structure of the Portuguese Education System
Portugal implements 12 years of free public education, with children starting their education at age 6 until they complete 12 grades by age 18. According to a United Nations report, there are an average of 22.2 students per class in Portugal; there are ample public and private universities, and some private institutions collaborate with schools in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, and Switzerland to offer dual degree programs.
Foundational Primary Education
Primary education in Portugal is for ages 6-10, focusing on foundational knowledge. During this stage, students primarily study basic subjects such as mathematics, Portuguese, English, music, and physical education, ensuring they build a solid foundation.
Good educational quality can significantly stimulate students' talents and potential. The early education curriculum followed by Portuguese primary schools states, "Every child deserves the best start in life and the support to unleash their unlimited potential."
Diverse Secondary Education
Secondary education in Portugal is for ages 10-15, and the curriculum becomes more diverse. In addition to subjects like physics, chemistry, geography, and biology, there are also courses in drama, crafts, music, sports, and technology, aimed at fostering well-rounded development and allowing students to explore their interests through varied experiences.
During this stage, Portuguese secondary education places greater emphasis on the psychological growth and changes of adolescents, with schools offering interactive counseling corners and small classes to help guide teenagers through their rebellious phases and address negative psychological states.
Language Learning Paradise in High School Education
After experiencing the enlightenment and development of primary and secondary education, Portuguese students transition to high school, where they can choose a diverse combination of courses, completing their studies through a major and minor system. High school cultural courses increase the focus on language acquisition, such as French, German, and Spanish, with many in Portugal being proficient in three or more languages, which is the foundation of education.
At the same time, Portugal's higher education level ranks among the best in the world. Notable universities include the University of Lisbon, the top comprehensive university in Portugal, the renowned Polytechnic Institute of Bragança, and the University of Porto, known for its strengths in physical medicine.
As one of Europe's oldest countries, Portugal's education system has been continuously refined and improved throughout history. From enriching students' knowledge to cultivating their character, the Portuguese education system considers every aspect for students. Today, children's education has become the primary motivation and goal for many new immigrant families, and the education system in Portugal, which focuses on the fundamentals for children, has attracted significant attention from parents.
In fact, the educational advantages brought by a "Golden Residence Permit" in Portugal are not limited to the welfare benefits within Portugal. For families with children at the stage of advancing their education, the value of the "Golden Visa" for property investment in Portugal is further reflected in its support for children's educational pursuits.
Currently, through the Portuguese Golden Residence Program, investors can purchase properties starting from €350,000, allowing three generations of the family to apply for Portuguese Golden Residence status, enjoy generous social welfare and quality educational resources in Portugal, travel freely across 26 Schengen countries, and also acquire property with permanent ownership, making it a win-win situation!
