Saint John de Brito School, Catholic school in Santo António, Macau
Saint John de Brito School is a Catholic secondary school in Santo António with three separate divisions: Chinese, English, and Evening programs that serve students from elementary through high school. The institution operates two campus locations to accommodate its various educational programs.
The institution started as a vocational training center in 1985 and transformed into a Chinese secondary school in 1994 under Caritas Macau's administration. This shift reflected changing educational needs within the Macau community.
The school maintains connections to Portuguese teaching traditions that have shaped education in Macau for generations. This heritage appears in how students experience learning across different cultural viewpoints within the classroom.
Day sections hold classes from 8:25 AM to 4:30 PM for school-age students, while evening programs run from 5:00 PM to 10:30 PM for those with other commitments. The main campus is located on Rua de Pedro Coutinho where Chinese and English programs operate together.
The school offers parallel educational tracks with separate Chinese and English language programs, allowing students to pursue their entire education in their preferred language. This structure provides true bilingual learning rather than simply adding language classes.
