About the school
| Qualities and characteristics best defining the school |
Escola Internacional de Alphaville is a Brazilian bilingual school that has offered students and families a wide range of future life choices since the year 2000. |
| Teaching approach of the school |
EIDA aims to provide its students with an optimum environment where they can develop the necessary competencies for success and overcoming challenges in the rapidly transforming 21st century. Students prepare for these transformations by having an understanding of the real world. It is not at all achieved by memorising facts and chunks of isolated information simply to pass an exam, it is achieved by genuinely understanding knowledge within and across subject areas, making connections, self reflecting and refining interpersonal relationship skills. |
