Saturday, October 25, 2025
From 9:30 to 11:30
Our first grade secondary school continues the bilingual path integrating the English National Curriculum with the Italian Ministerial Guidelines, to offer students a complete education, open to the world and perfectly aligned with the most advanced national and international standards.
The goal is to accompany students in a delicate phase like pre-adolescence, ensuring a safe and stimulating environment in which they can grow not only in terms of knowledge, but also in the development of transversal skills, autonomy and self-awareness.
Learning by Doing: Project Based Learning
At the center of our approach is Project Based Learning (PBL), an active and engaging methodology in which students learn by carrying out concrete and interdisciplinary projects.
In this context, they develop key skills to face the challenges of today’s and tomorrow’s world.

Certificazione Cambridge: una competenza che apre porte
At the end of the cycle, students take the Cambridge certification, which certifies their English level according to international standards.

A result that best prepares them to successfully face any course of study, both in Italy and abroad.
