Curriculum details	Curriculum details Leonardo da Vinci Munich provides a dynamic Italo-German private education from primary through Gymnasium. It blends Italian educational tradition with the Bavarian system, offering a plurilingual and intercultural context. From first grade to maturity, the school supports a continuous path to the Bavarian Abitur, with alternative intermediate qualifications such as QUALI or EMA at the end of grade 9, or MSA at the end of grade 10. There is also a route for students who discover their talents later: by enrolling in grade 11, they can complete the final two years toward the Bavarian Abitur. The Italo-German bilingual setting emphasizes multilingualism and intercultural competencies within a cosmopolitan school community in Munich.	Curriculum details G9 (outgoing G8) is offered in two branches: Wirtschafts-Wissenschaftliches Gymnasium (WWG) and Sprachliches Gymnasium (SG). Bilingual teaching has been available since 2013, through German-English B-class tracks. The school operates small class sizes and a Two-Teacher System with Pedagogical Assistants, serving about 340 pupils and 75 staff. ABIplus® enables students to acquire a professional qualification in addition to Abitur. MusiKultur and a broad range of elective courses — including art, theatre, music, instrument and orchestra — complement a STEM focus with ICDL; Living Europe / Erasmus+ projects are part of the curriculum, along with various trips.
