It opened for the 1999–2000 school year, and was created from the Decree-Law No. 241/99 of 25 June promoting Cooperation between the Portuguese Republic and the Republic of Mozambique. This was modified by Decree-Law n.º 47/2009 of 23 February.
The school's symbol is of a tree within green and red portico. The tree roots represent the school's educational philosophy and are a reference to some verses from works of Luís de Camões.
In the future,[when?] the EPM will be the regulatory academy for the Mozambican dialects of the Portuguese language.[citation needed]
