Welcome to MILE Bilingual School
Dear Families
At MILE, the children are our absolute focus. Our professional team of native English and Italian teachers work with great dedication to create innovative and effective learning activities, allowing students to achieve their full potential in a fun and engaging way.
We encourage our students to be curious, creative and passionate, as we accompany them with joy on their educational journey.
Through my experience, I have witnessed how the choice of a bilingual school, such as MILE, equips your children with essential learning skills, preparing them for the future and challenges that lie ahead.
Bilingualism instils open-mindedness, nurtures social and emotional intelligence and the ability to concentrate. It cultivates teamwork, while respecting the talents of each individual student.
We look forward to welcoming you to our school community soon!

Our School
MILE is a bilingual school that offers the Italian and the Cambridge curriculums (a bilingual curriculum), now with 20 years of experience. We are a “paritaria” school, officially recognised by the Italian Ministry of Education (MIUR), both for Primary and Lower Secondary.
All subjects are taught in both languages in order to ensure a solid academic platform which allows our students to access the best Italian high schools or the most prestigious international high schools.
Our approach is holistic and takes into account the development of the child as an individual who must learn important interpersonal skills. For this reason, alongside all traditional subjects, we integrate subjects as DRAMA, ICT, MUSIC, ART, PHYSICAL EDUCATION.
Our interdisciplinary projects promote awareness of sustainability and the environment: food education, the garden project, the recycling project, the pet care project, the bicycle project.
Every student’s inclusion is essential: we work according to the individual needs of each child. Collaboration with our Community is an integral part of our teaching: Teacher and Parent working groups give life to sporting events such as MILE ON ICE, MILE ON SKI, MILE ON BIKE as well as to important art and music events.
Our school offers a multicultural environment thanks to the over 20 nationalities present within our community. As we are part of International Schools Partnership, we can also offer additional learning and cultural opportunities.
Our Vision and Values
MILE is a welcoming community of learners, who, thanks to our innovative teaching methods and creative approach to learning, develop their personal skills, making amazing progress every day.
Our teaching offers multiple experience in both the Italian and English areas, ensuring the consolidation of skills through cooperative learning and learning by doing. We work on open classes to ensure a rewarding school experience even for children with high potential.
We encourage our children to love learning, to be courteous to all, to respect the feelings of others, to be sensitive to our environment, and feel confident to be able to make the difference to all our communities, now and tomorrow.
MILE is an inclusive and innovative school with a great openness to the world and to the future.
