girls is empowered
to develop her true voice. Girls are always
centre stage. Behind every
succesful woman
is herself. The best thing a
girl can wear is
confidence. We believe girls do
better in an environment
created specifically
for them. We believe a
school for girls
is better than
a school with girls We inspire girls
to be leaders,
we cultivate women
of influence. We teach our girls
the value of their
own voice. An All-Girls EducationAn All-Girls Education Studies and research reveal the many benefits of gender-specific education, given the huge differences in the way boys and girls learn. There are innate physical differences between the brains of boys and girls that affect cognitive areas, behaviour, maturity, memory, language, emotion, vision, hearing and navigation, all of which are essential for optimal learning.
In San Silvestre, we are supremely aware of these differences; therefore, we have designed an appropriate curriculum to meet the learning needs of girls, so that each student can develop her full potential.
Furthermore, an adaptive educational environment reinforces important aspects in the formation of an individual, such as self-esteem and self-confidence, which are the basis of our educational system and fundamental to the success of our students. See more ESDESD Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) relates to all aspects of education which aim to help students to ‘develop the attitudes, skills and knowledge to make informed decisions for the benefit of themselves and others, now and in the future, and to act upon these decisions.
San Silvestre School is acutely aware of its responsibility to endorse and practise not only sustainable behaviour but also education for sustainable development. We believe that the practice of sustainable behaviour and education in the philosophy of such development is essential in order to ensure our students are empowered to become good decision makers in ensuring quality of life without damaging the planet for the future.
See more Service LearningService Learning From Nursery until the end of their school career, our pupils are encouraged to understand and empathise others and be fully aware of social needs and issues.
We live in a country marked by great contrasts. We are fortunate in being able to give our students the best opportunities to develop within a stimulating and caring environment, both at home and at school. Sadly, not all students and young people are so fortunate. At San Silvestre, our Community Service projects include supporting the underprivileged but also projects aimed at helping students who are suffering from serious illnesses and other groups in need of support.
Our fundamental objective is the formation of students who are well-balanced and compassionate individuals.

Boundaries cease to be the limit they once were. In San Silvestre, well aware of this fact, we prepare our students so that they can face the challenges and responsibilities of dealing with the world outside their immediate reality.
As a result of the broad scope of activities that the school offers including study trips, exchange programmes, international examinations, international championships, community service and conferences, San Silvestre pupils are global citizens.

The pupils develop many transferable and enduring skills including: field work, practical work, academic writing, research, extended essays, presentations. The courses are largely delivered in English thus they enhance the bilingual identity of the school.

One of the greatest supports in fostering the spirit of solidarity is the Ex-Alumnae Association, which encourages a close link with the School in all its functions and liaisons with the students, staff and parents.
Its central ethos is to integrate its members in the common aims of friendship and humanistic qualities based on the positive set of values encouraged by the school. It is an integral part of the School, not an extension or a separate body.
