  3. Secondary Schools • In Italy pupils attend Secondary School from the age of 14 to 19. At the end of the 5 years they have to give their final exam to get their Diploma. It consists of 2 written tests on the main subjects plus an oral ‘discussion’ on a chosen topic and a test – written and oral - on all the subjects of the last school-year.

  4. Pupils have to choose their secondary school at the age of 14, after the 8th grade exam. They can choose among a variety of schools, each with a fixed program for all. All schools have some common subjects: Italian, History, Maths, English and Physical Education After the Diploma they can enter University. Secondary Schools

  7. Students’ Expectations • We expect that our school gives us the necessary preparation for our future life and career. We would also like to have better facilities: we find our gym too small and shabby and we’d like to have an easier access to the school library. Besides, we think that students should have the chance to be more in contact with the beautiful nature surrounding our school and this could be possible organizing outdoor activities.

  8. For the celebration of the ‘Day of Tuscany’ on 30th November the drama group have realized a piece based on the myth of Europe, written by the young actors and their director.
