Finding a School

Schooling is open to everyone. Article 34 of the Italian Constitution states that "Primary education, given for at least eight years, is compulsory and free of charge.
(3). Pupils of ability and merit, even if lacking financial resources, have the right to attain the highest grades of studies. The Republic furthers the realisation of this right by scholarships, allowances to families, and other provisions, to be assigned through competitive examinations.
Municipalities with a kindergarten service manage Scuole dell’infanza [kindergartens]. You may enrol with a kindergarten: with the school itself from 18 to 20 January. You can enrol your children at any level in any kindergarten.

Some Provinces also have a scuola materna [nursery school] department.

For more general information, contact Ufficio IV della Direzione generale per gli Ordinamenti scolastici [Department IV of the Directorate General for Educational Training Structures]: tel.+39 06/58492311-2346.

For further local information, contact your local regional education department.
