Overview

Introducing the fashionable, new campus in Príncipe Real, Lisbon’s most premium area. Named after D. Pedro V, the Príncipe Real (Royal Prince) district is the most fashionable and exclusive area in Lisbon. With boundless greenery, charming and grand architecture, and delectable fine dining and shopping, there’s always something new for you to discover. And, nestled between the Botanical Garden of Lisbon and the National Museum of Natural History is Greene’s state-of-the-art campus in the magnificent Palacete Castilho. Greene’s is excited to be bringing the tutorial method style of learning to Lisbon, Portugal. What is Greene’s College Oxford like? Greene’s offers a full-time, university-style sixth form education, in Oxford, England and Lisbon & Estoril, Portugal – with academic oversight resting with the Oxford college. In Portugal, Greene’s is the first tutorial college and the foremost sixth form college in the Lisbon area. Greene’s is also the oldest tutorial college in Oxford, and quite possibly in the U.K. At Greene’s, students are taught and supervised by our outstanding educators and academics, all trained to deliver the very best education, and to guide students towards the highest grades – while maintaining the greatest regard for student welfare and wellbeing. Every student is allocated a Personal Tutor, in addition to the academic specialists, who guides, mentors and encourages the student throughout his or her time at Greene’s, enabling students to grow personally as well as academically. Most courses at Greene’s are delivered to students individually or in very small groups, with some work in larger seminars. ‘Independent’ and ‘individual’ are widely used adjectives in education, however Greene’s has been truly committed to the tutorial method of learning for over 55 years, and has invested much time, technology and expertise to ensure that students really benefit from a philosophy of teaching and learning that continues to be used in the most ancient of universities. At Greene’s students are very much in control of their studies and have access to a stream of information about their progress, feedback from tutors, realistic assessments of their likely achievement, together with the reassurance of their Personal Tutor to talk through their personal academic strategy. As our inspecting regulators ISI (the Independent Schools’ Inspectorate) report: “The quality of the curriculum, teaching and learners’ achievements is excellent.” Would Greene’s College Oxford be suitable for my child? Perhaps one question to ask before considering Greene’s as a sixth form destination is whether your child is ready to study in a university-style setting. Our aim is to bring all our students to the realisation that, fully supported and guided, they can be independent learners, and that they have potential in areas that may surprise them. Greene’s makes no selection based on academic ability, and we pride ourselves on helping a wide variety of students: for those tackling A levels for the first time, for those wanting a change of direction or a second chance, and for those who want a flexible timetable, for example elite sports people with intense training programmes, or those wishing to pursue an additional academic subject unavailable at their current or previous school. While our tutors and academic staff expect a high degree of engagement and motivation, we are fully aware that not all our students are academic high-flyers. Many students will achieve A or A* at A level (42% did so this year), and progress to a prestigious university in the U.K., Europe, the U.S. or elsewhere. On the other hand, we are constantly gratified to see those students, whether Oxford and Cambridge applicants or those aiming directly for professional or practical qualifications, who have learnt skills for thinking critically, studying independently and managing their time, which will be of huge benefit, taking them in to their future careers, whether at university or beyond. How can I apply to Greene’s College Oxford? In order to ensure students are enrolled on the most suitable courses for them, each potential student is required to submit an application form (to be found on our website), then interviewed, references taken and a programme of study carefully discussed – and whether the location is to be Oxford, Estoril, Lisbon, or online. Diagnostic tests also form part of the registration process: this is not to filter the less academically capable, but to guarantee each student is fully prepared for any course undertaken, and to ensure we choose exactly the right tutor for everyone.
