Multilingual Middle School: Unlocking Potential
At our middle school, students thrive in a multilingual environment, studying Italian, English, and either French or Spanish.
While fulfilling the requirements of the Italian Ministry of Education, our students dedicate 15 hours/week to English subjects (compared to 3 hours in Italian state schools), attaining remarkable linguistic proficiency in this language.
Those who have followed the FBS path since primary school achieve the B1/B2 level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).
Students at FBS Middle School study English, Art, Music, and Science and Technology following the engaging Cambridge International Curriculum. They also enjoy Physical Education in English.
In addition, students have the privilege of studying either French or Spanish (double the hours of third language compared to the standard Italian public school), benefiting from the expertise of passionate and native-speaking teachers.
This unique opportunity broadens their horizons and fosters a deeper appreciation for language and culture.
