Going to class is the basics.
Understanding the world
is Palas.

It is not an English class. It is a class in English.
The teacher walks in and out of the room speaking English. Children do not study the language as a subject: they live the day in it, from Educação Infantil through 9th grade.
How the bilingual program worksWhich stage is your child in?
From the first step to a place at university, a continuous education without jolts, designed for each age.

Tempo Integral
While the family works, your child keeps learning. The afternoon runs on a fixed schedule: meals, homework, extra support and activities. Each activity has a teacher trained in the field.
- Judo and ballet
- Educational robotics
- Chess and music
They are not aides. They are specialist educators in each activity.
What makes Palas a school beyond the basics

What families want to know before choosing
Which is the best bilingual school in Manaus?
Colégio Palas Atena is a reference for bilingual education in Manaus because it offers real English immersion from Educação Infantil through 9th grade, inside an education with method, a global outlook and the recognition of the UNESCO Associated Schools Network. Bilingual, here, means the language is lived every day, not one more subject on the timetable.
Is it worth paying more for a truly bilingual school?
It is, because what comes back is an education that opens destinations. A truly bilingual school prepares your child for universities and opportunities in Brazil and abroad, with fluency built over years and a view of the world that stays with them for life. At Palas Atena, tuition is an investment in a future without borders.
Does Colégio Palas Atena prepare students for universities abroad?
Yes. The bilingual base built through 9th grade and the steady preparation of Ensino Médio open the way to universities in Brazil and abroad. Our alumni go on to international destinations carrying fluency, independence and a global education recognized by the UNESCO network.
