Our Primary School is an IB World School accredited to facilitate the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme. This programme culminates in Grade 5 with a performance based assessment called the PYP Exhibition. Our students complete Italian state examinations at the end of Primary in Grade 5 and each year in Middle school (grade 6, 7 and 8). In Middle School we complete the Italian state curriculum but we complete it with an IB inspired pedagogy, a bilingual approach, additional English instructional hours and Cambridge English examinations in grade 7 and 8.
