Our incredible pupils - uniquely in Rome - come from over 100 different countries and this infuses our school with vibrancy, inclusivity, tolerance, respect and support.

Our highly qualified team of teachers includes many leading educationalists and experts in their field who inspire the pupils to genuinely be the best they can be.

We are dedicated to not only recruiting and retaining the best teachers, but also to ensuring that we constantly develop and improve the education that they provide for our pupils through a focus on training, coaching, research and innovation.
