St George's is Rome's original British international school, founded in 1958 and home to a truly global community of pupils from over 100 different countries. The founding values of internationalism, inclusivity, and excellence continue to shape its community and learning environment today.
The school offers an ambitious, enhanced version of the UK National Curriculum, designed to inspire and support a wide range of learners. Pupils are happy, curious and motivated. They are encouraged to discover their passion and purpose, developing the character, skills and confidence to make a difference in the world.
In the Sixth Form, pupils follow the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme, with examination results that are consistently amongst the best in Europe. The Class of 2024 achieved an average score of 36 points and accepted places at leading universities in the UK, including at Cambridge, St Andrew's, UCL, King's and Warwick, and elsewhere in the world, including Stanford, Chicago, Duke and Bocconi.
The larger of the school's two campuses is a leafy, historic site in the city's north, with seven fully-equipped science laboratories, a drama studio, specialist music, art and design technology rooms, and a plethora of sporting amenities including two multi-purpose astro-turf pitches, an olympic-size running track, tennis, netball, basketball and volleyball courts.
From September 2025, the campus will increase to 23 acres in size with the addition of a new Junior School building, swimming pools and further outdoor spaces. A second campus, catering for Nursery to Year 6 only, is located in the heart of the city in close proximity to the Vatican, providing different options for families depending on their home location.
Pupils enjoy a wide range of co-curricular activities, from art and coding to debating and forest school. Sports teams compete at the highest level, both in Italy and further afield. The Music Department offers over 20 different orchestras, choirs and ensembles. Teachers are UK-trained and mother-tongue English speakers.
With a proudly inclusive admissions policy, the school welcomes new pupils throughout the year, subject to availability, and offers extensive support to pupils with additional educational or English language needs. For prospective families, virtual and in-person visits are available on an individual basis every day.
