Question
Oi Sandra,
We live in the UK but my partner is from Salvador. We would like to spend a year there and a year here, but I am concerned about our childrens education. Do you know if any schools offer the same curriculum at the same pace, in Salvador and in UK?
Thank you for your help.
Kind regards,
Paul.

Answer
I don't know about specific curriculum, but probably the best school to check out in Salvador is the Pan-American School.

My personal experience with Brazilian students arriving in the U.S. from private schools in Brazil is that they are usually a year ahead of their U.S. age counterparts in curriculum content.
Sorry, but I know nothing about schools in the U.K.

Best of luck. Hope you enjoy Salvador as much as we do.

Expertise

Drawing on my personal travel experience in Brazil (more than a decade's worth), as well as time spent living in Brazil (especially Salvador, Bahia) and knowledge of the Brazilian community in the U.S., I can help with most questions concerning travel, specific destinations, paperwork for moving, marriage or business, and more. I enjoy helping people get the most from their stay in Brazil. I'd be happy to hear from you.

Experience

I have spent considerable time in Brazil, living and travelling, over more than a decade. I have travelled widely throughout much of Brazil, sometimes solo and sometimes with Brazilian friends and relatives, and am familiar with many destinations. I have done translation and interpretation, and also have taught ESL.

Publications
I write for a number of travel forums, blogs and publications concerning Brazil.
