Our School
The building, is located between two residential streets in a quiet area. It has two entrances: the main one having a large gate where children can safely enter and leave the school. There is also a parking area at the main entrance.
A large green space welcomes the children on arrival, giving them a place to enjoy their school day.

Yieschool’s method
The YIES method is based on modern academic research and allows the development of knowledge through personal experiences. The school is an environment where students develop critical thinking and personal skills and where different learning styles are recognized and valued. Students will be able to think creatively and be independent when solving problems.
We develop :
- SKILLS & CAPABILITIES
- KNOWLEDGE
- ATTITUDES
through a concept driven curriculum.
Concept driven teaching and learning offers an alternative to the traditional programme because it creates a link between the students’ interests and fundamental skills that are transferable across disciplines. The exploration of concepts helps students understand cross-disciplinary ideas and forms the essential core of learning.
Who we are
YIES is a multilingual and multicultural school.
It takes inspiration by the educational principles outlined by the European Union aiming at the holistic development of the individual child, helping them develop from infants to young adults.
Traditional subjects are taught in both Italian and English, with Spanish as a third language, developing an open approach to learning.
All subjects benefit from the YIES approach. They are reinforced through the use of different languages, creating an environment in which each child can find their own place. The teaching of innovative skills such as computer coding, robotics and design provide essential tools for students of the 21st century.
