The International School of Venice offers a bilingual English–Italian education for ages 3–14. The curriculum blends the English National Curriculum with Italian Ministerial Programs across Early Years (3–6), Primary (6–11) and Middle School (11–14). English is the language of instruction, with Italian integrated to support an international, bilingual setting. The School Curriculum Plan covers all three levels, and Primary pupils prepare for the Italian certificate while Middle School students sit an external state exam. Cambridge English exams are prepared in collaboration with the Oxford School in Venice. Founded in 1993, IS Venice provides a continuous learning pathway with active involvement from parents and staff. The campus uses eco-sustainable, bio-building design, prioritizing student well-being and digital learning. A STEAM approach underpins Mathematics and computing—Movement Through Math—with hands-on science experiences through Fenice Green Energy Park field trips. After-school clubs, Latin for Middle School and a Summer Camp broaden opportunities for culture, sports and creativity.
