About Sementes — Núcleo de Capacitação Pessoal e Comunitária
Unusually clear about its legal framing: it is not yet a school, it operates as a Centro de Apoio ao Ensino Doméstico e Individual, and children remain matriculated in a public or private school. Supports families with portfolios, reports and official assessment preparation.
Legal status & enrolment
The site states it does not issue school certificates and that certification remains with the school of matrícula. An authorisation process for a private 1.º ciclo school is underway for September 2026.
What this means in practice
Sementes — Núcleo de Capacitação Pessoal e Comunitária is categorised as a learning community in this directory. Non-school communities, ATL-style centres and support hubs that work with families using ensino doméstico or ensino individual. Children remain matriculated at a school of record and certification comes from elsewhere.
