Scientific High School
The academic path offered by the Scientific High School of the Montessori International Centre is focused on reaching the following objectives:
- Achieving a confident knowledge of the fundamental aspects of physical and natural sciences (chemistry, biology, earth science, astronomy).
- Obtaining a cultural, linguistic, historical, philosophical and scientific education.
- Understanding the bases of argumentative and demonstrative processes of mathematics.
- Capturing the importance of scientific results obtained through time in order to understand daily use technologies.
The added value of our Scientific High School is to allow every student to create an adequate study method to encourage the approach to any university, as classes are formed by a small number of students. As a matter of fact, our teaching methods put students at the centre of the educational project, along with their needs, desires and aspirations. Their competences and personal qualities are stimulated and enriched, with the aim of creating a critical conscience and build the basis for a long-lasting and permanent learning.
Another peculiarity of our school is the co-presence in class of a native English teacher, who’s job is to study the main curricular subjects straight in English, with moments dedicated to conversation. This allows both the strengthening of the academic contents already studied in Italian, and the acquisition of the foreign language. This activity is placed in an academic path which allows those who join the school at a very young age to speak, read and write accurately in two different languages, Italian and English (find out more Why choose a bilingual school).
For those who will chose to continue with their studies, our Scientific High School favours the access to both technical and scientific universities, like engineering, medicine, biology, chemistry, chemistry and pharmaceutical technologies, economy, and humanistic universities, like modern literature, psychology, and educational science.
