Who We Are
Nobel Algarve is a British International School spanning two campuses in Lagoa and Almancil. Our welcoming, world-class school was established in 1972 by pioneering parents who wanted their children to have an international education. Today, our flagship campus, Lagoa, is a world-class school with a thriving community of over 40 nationalities. The Almancil campus was inaugurated in 2020 and is the only purpose-built school in the Algarve.
Both campuses offer Early Years to Secondary education and are expanding to enhance the facilities and meet demand. Across our locations, we offer world-renowned curricular choices, and our students go on to study at top universities worldwide.
