Genova

International curriculum but the community is almost entirely italian

What grade levels are represented at this school?

6-12 (ages 11 to 18)

How do most children get to school everyday? (bus, train, walk, etc.)

public transport. There is a small Middle School bus but noone knows much about it.

How would you describe the facilities at this school? What extra-curricular activities are available?

limited. the school shares the building with a local school which means the facilities are poor and it is very small. no outer spaces

What has this school done to help your child transition from the curriculum in your home country into the curriculum in your new country? Are there programs to prepare your child for repatriation?

the school is making improvements year by year but still has low standards both in terms of teachers and of learning. students are not eager to learn and IB results are rather low. it still needs some time to get to a decent level.

How would you describe the social activities available for parents through this school? Are there parent-teacher organizations?

there is no PTO so not much

What advice would you give to someone considering enrolling their child in this school?

this school is state-run so the facilities and the standards are low. look for a better alternative- there is another international school in Genova which seems to be quite good.
