Escola Nova is one of the references in quality education in Rio de Janeiro. From early childhood education to high school, since 1980, we have promoted lifelong learning by bringing content and stimulus to creativity, critical thinking and global education. A Escola Nova by SIS Swiss International School. Currently more than 5.000 students from both local and internationally mobile families attend classes at one of the 17 SIS schools in Switzerland, Germany and Brazil. SIS is a company of the Kalaidos Swiss Education Group which belongs to the Klett Group Germany. SIS schools in Brazil are recognised by the local educational authorities and are a firm fixture in the Brazilian school landscape.

We believe that the student is an active agent in the teaching-learning process through curiosity, communication and collaboration. Our aim is to instruct a citizen who is critical, participative, creative and independent, capable of respecting differences and adapting to everyday situations.

Our educational philosophy is based on the consciousness of its social function to form free men and women who are aware, endowed with critical skills, autonomous, supportive and integrated into the society in which they live in.

We believe, therefore, that students who take possession of the guidelines and information in this manual will have more autonomy in their teaching-learning process, thus contributing to their success throughout their academic journey.

Escola Nova’s office is open from Monday to Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. For any administrative or financial matters please contact directly:
