Introduction
Smiling International School, situated in Ferrara, operates across two sites, with Campus Roversella housing students from 3rd to 5th grade Primary and Lower Secondary School. The curriculum is bilingual, taught primarily in English and Italian, while also offering Spanish and Chinese language studies. Older students can choose between the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma or a distinctive four-year high school track (Liceo Quadriennale) that culminates in the Italian Maturità. A signature feature of the school is its Education Trips program, which integrates international travel to destinations like Singapore and Seville into the standard learning pathway to build independence. The school also employs a vertical Continuity Project, regularly grouping students of different ages for shared activities to ease transitions between grades. On-site boarding is available, and extracurricular offerings include specialized options like digital painting, watercolor, and sports dance.
