Our son spent two years at the DSL. The experience could not have been worse. First of all, this is a school that is mostly visited by Portuguese children. Therefore the academic level for all classes held in German is very low (so all classes except for Portuguese and hist贸ria e geografia). Native German speakers are underwhelmed and bored. There is no support for gifted children, just additional materials upon request nobody checks in order to offer appropriate continuation. The Portuguese children bully German newcomers, so these stick together and rarely learn Portuguese required in higher years. The teachers scold children that are in any way different, exposing them in front of class. The school psychologists are not there to support the children in need, but themselves go as far to threaten misbehaving or simply children that don't fit the mould. Children denunciate each other constantly just to save themselves from scold by the teachers. Togetherness, joy of learning, and team work are in no way supported as little as academic excellence, personal growth, or leadership. Obedience and order are the only qualities that receive attention or credit. 50% of the grade is awarded for good behaviour and orderly materials. DSL seems like a school, where children are trained to be servants. Or optionally soldiers. If you or your child don't have these aspirations, don't enrol.

Rarely any German native speaking students. Low level of German spoken by students, as a consequence. Values and life priorities from the school are inverted. I do not recommend any parent to trust their children to this institution, which is highly intolerant. Parents are persecuted if they do not agree with the school's questionable ideologies that it tries to impose on the children since 6 years of age.

Outstanding in building skills and character, focused on development and autonomy

Absolutely the best school in Lisbon. Focused on the child鈥檚 education, on preparing them both for an academic future and an autonomous life. Very strong all round in terms of curriculum. Not a school for everyone, it鈥檚 a school for the best in class

Boa escola mas alguns professores novos que v锚m da Alemanha s茫o maus. O ensino e programas de matem谩tica e f铆sica s茫o inferiores aos das boas escolas portuguesas. Pobres dos alunos que n茫o conseguem entrar no curso que querem porque is exames s茫o absurdamente dif铆ceis.

Fui aluno da escola. Aprendi musica, arte, desporto... dos 9 aos 18 anos. Falo franc锚s, ingl锚s, alem茫o. Profundo respeito e admira莽茫o pela cultura de um povo admiravel. Era um adolescente "atrevido"... e em momento algum senti ou vivi austeridade ou agressividade. Os comentarios que aqui se referem a excesso de estudo e hipot茅ticas lacunas na vertente humana... s茫o del铆rios. Uma realidade que n茫o assiti ou vivi. E nao esquecendo que ter frequentado a escola alem茫 , sempre se apresentou como algo preponderante no mercado de trabalho.

I can highly recommend this school. I speak out of my own experience. I finished DSL with the Abitur. (I am half German, half Portuguese).
