Villa Grimani International School
was founded in 1998 by a group of parents who wished to offer their children the opportunity to attend a school providing an excellent education in an open-minded and happy environment, with the daily programme conducted in English, a recognised tool of international communication.
Our children also study Italian, which is taught by experienced mother tongue Italian teachers.
Our philosophy: European culture and mother-tongue teachers
The school is situated in a magnificent ancient villa, dating from the 1400’s. The school staff and of course the children bring modernity and life to this beautiful building.
Villa Grimani International School is also a member of ECIS, European Council of International Schools.
How to apply
It is possible to enrol your child at Villa Grimani at any point during the academic year providing there are spaces available. Children are accepted from Italian, foreign and international schools. They may be asked to sit an entry test and meet with staff on a few occasions to gage their level of English and to decide in which class they should be placed. Children entering with little or no English are given individual support from our support teachers in and out of the classroom.
