Kendale International School was established in 1972. The school has a long history of high academic achievement and prepares its pupils for both international and Italian middle schools. The classes, ranging from beginning primary (4-5 years) to 5th Grade (Year 6), are small with an average of 10-14 students per class.
Kendale describes its community as cohesive, with the efforts and contributions of all involved appreciated and valued. It emphasises creativity, kindness, empathy, caring and sharing, and maintains opportunities for cross-age interaction to nurture confidence and mutual respect. Art Week strengthens family and community through active parent involvement, with the Art Week values COOPERATION, ORGANIZATION, RESPONSIBILITY, CREATIVITY, RESPECT, FREE CHOICE, CLEAN UP, FINISH, ENJOY. The school hosts events such as May Fair, Book Week, Kendale Open Day, and other activities that engage parents and the wider school community.
Kendale International School offers British and American curricula in Italy. The school serves ages 3 to 10, spanning primary through Year 6, with small class sizes averaging 10–14 students that support individual learning. The timetable blends core international subjects with a focus on creativity: time for musical, dramatic and artistic activities, together with regular physical education. Instruction is in English, complemented by a comprehensive Italian course and an introduction to French, helping pupils develop multilingual communication. For younger children, daily routines foster independent learning in a safe and supportive environment. By Year 6, Kendale pupils are prepared for transition to Middle School—whether at an Italian Scuola Media, an international institution, or a school in their home country. Established in 1972, the school has decades of experience, with activities such as Art Week, museum excursions in Rome, and after-school programs including Italian language study across history, geography, science, poetry and maths.
