American, British, IBThis page currently covers 2 schools listed in Sintra, Portugal. Coverage is growing and does not represent every private school in the area.
CAISL and TASIS Portugal are both listed in Sintra, with Linhó campus addresses. Their educational pathways and fee inclusions differ. CAISL’s American pathway includes an IB Diploma option; TASIS progresses through its earlier curriculum to IGCSE and IB.
Both profiles contain 2026/27 tuition tables. CAISL adds a building fee for the first five years from Grade 1. TASIS lists a one-time campus enhancement fee from Kindergarten and includes meals in tuition. A younger child’s tuition should not be compared with a secondary example at the other school. TASIS also restricts Grade 10 transfers to compatible IGCSE study.
