About

“Mighty oaks from little acorns grow.”

Acorn International School is the only dual-curriculum accredited school in Rome for students aged between 3 and 18.

We are recognized as a foreign school by the Ministry of Education, we are an authorized IB World School and a member of the Rome International School Association since 2005.

Since 1999, we provide high-quality education for children with mother-tongue, highly qualified teachers. Our stimulating bilingual English/Italian curriculum ensures deep immersion into both the UK and Italian curriculum, meeting both requirements.

We are immersed in the Vejo Park Campus, northern-Rome. Our campus provides a balanced environment between classroom and laboratory spaces and meaningful outdoor experiences.
