Lehrplan

With majority instruction in the English Language and incorporating elements that extend learning towards standards typical of international schools. Pupils are prepared for INVALSI tests at both Seconda and Quinta Elementare.

Within this framework, we have a multilingual teaching staff, including Italian teachers, English-speaking teachers and native English-speaking teachers, who enrich the learning experience through:

• Daily activities in English
• International teaching methodologies
• The development of critical thinking
• Cultural openness to the wider world

Our goal is to combine the strengths of the Italian school curriculum with a global outlook, preparing students for an international future.

In Years 10 and 11, students will prepare for British IGCSE examinations, and ultimately, select from a range of subject options to complete the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme in Years 12 and 13.

MIUR, the Italian Ministry of Education, presently recognises the IB Diploma as an equivalent to the Italian Maturità. As such, the IB Diploma allows students to access not only universities worldwide, but also Italian universities.

Through the entire school, native Italian students are provided with rigorous curriculum lessons in Italian, covering both language and literature. Students who are not mother-tongue Italian are placed in teaching sets that seek to accelerate Italian Language Learning.
