The Barreira Megalithic Complex (Portuguese: Conjunto Megalítico de Barreira) is located in the Sintra municipality in the Lisbon District of Portugal. Situated on a small wooded hill overlooking the village of Odrinhas, site of Roman ruins and an archaeological museum, it consists of about twenty menhirs and other monoliths or megaliths.The site, which is assumed to be a dolmen or cromlech, contains mainly cylindrical stones of varying heights, with the largest being approximately four metres tall. The size of the stones decreased as they became more distant from the central menhir and the megaliths were arranged irregularly depending on the terrain. No carved or painted symbols have been detected, except for a few pairs of small circular cavities, possibly representing eyes. A small number of items have been found to the west of the complex, including flints from the Lower Paleolithic, ceramic fragments and other items from the Neolithic period, and ceramic fragments from the Iron Age, suggesting that the site has been reused over time.The complex was not identified as a megalithic site until 1961 when it was studied by Gil Estevam Miguéis Andrade and Eduardo Prescott Vicente, who continued their studies in subsequent years. In 1975 several monoliths were removed to be used in construction work at the Port of Ericeira. In 1985, three more menhirs were also removed by the landowners, including the central monolith. It was classified as a Site of Public Interest in 1993.

The school operates with the internationally recognised[1] and demanding Cambridge IGCSE and A-Level programme of study. This programme offers a broad choice of curriculum and has a reputation for developing successful students.[2] International School College Infanta D. Maria de Portugal has integrated the teaching of the national language and culture into their curriculum, with a department of dedicated and qualified English speakers faculty. Portuguese language lessons are now mandatory at the younger levels with children taking these classes divided into groups according to their linguistic skill level.

It is also an accredited University of Cambridge Examinations Centre. In 2007 it received planning permission to build Portugal's first bi-lingual primary school which delivers some subjects in Portuguese and English.

The bilingual concept took two years to devise and formed the basis of a Masters in International Education dissertation by its director, Carlos Miguel Sousa Almeida.
