The International School of Monza is an International Baccalaureate continuum school and a member of the Inspired education group, the leading global premium group of schools that offer excellence in education to over 75,000 students worldwide. From exchange programmes to exclusive camps, to leadership conferences and shared learning experiences, Inspired offers a range of enriching global opportunities which give students a chance to travel, meet peers from other countries and become a part of a vibrant international community.

We strive to deliver an education that embodies the IB learner profile and our school's Core Values. We are a community of curious learners, striving for a world without frontiers. Our learners are happy, experiential, ambitious, respectful and thoughtful.

With a 40-year long history, our record of success in the IB is well established as our students thrive all the way through our school from ages 2.5 to 18. As well as being well rooted in tradition, there's a fresh and unique approach to the way that we undertake teaching. The impressive results attained by our students in the cutting-edge MYP e-assessment and DP examinations, as well as their admission into a diverse range of some of the world's leading universities, is evidence of this.

Technology is harnessed in our classrooms through a blended approach - classrooms are fitted with smart TVs and students bring iPads or MacBooks to school. These carefully selected technologies, including Inspired AI, add value to both teaching and learning.

In addition to the IB Diploma, we also prepare our Italian students to sit their Quinta Elementare and Terza Media examinations. Every year they achieve truly exceptional results.

All this takes place in our city-centre campus designed to foster collaborative approaches to learning. Our science laboratories are fitted with state-of-the-art equipment, and we also boast on-site spaces which support the delivery of our Reggio-Inspired Early Years Curriculum. We have beautiful libraries, a theatre, studios for visual and performative arts as well as a large indoor and outdoor sports complex just a three-minute walk away.

An active effort is also made to interact with the opportunities that lie beyond the walls of our school, as we seek to take advantage of being in such a culturally rich part of the world.

Our education prepares our students for the complex and interconnected world that lies ahead, whilst ensuring they are ever-curious and are instilled with the values to become exceptional global citizens.
