Welcome to the International School of Modena. With over 25 years of high quality education, the school has gained an average of 37.5 in the DP in 2024 and continues to be the top IB school in Italy. ISM started as a joint venture with Tetra Pak, whose global research and development unit is located in Modena. ISM is a proud member of Inspired which is the fastest growing premium international schools' group operating on 5 continents and educating over 95,000 students globally. Our modern, purpose-built campus, surrounded by green open spaces, is located 12km outside of the city of Modena.

We are a truly international school representing approximately 38 different nationalities and offering the full continuum of International Baccalaureate (IB) education, with the Primary Years Programme (PYP) for children ages 3-11, Middle Years Programme (MYP) for ages 11-16 and the Diploma Programme (DP) for 16-18 years. ISM is the first school in Emilia-Romagna to offer the IB Continuum, which fully prepares students for study all around the globe, including at some of the world's leading universities.

Our innovative Early Years department features beautiful spaces and play structures specially designed to support the delivery of the IB PYP and Reggio-Inspired Early Years Curriculum.

The curriculum at ISM is carefully designed to reflect the ethos of the school and of the International Baccalaureate with a commitment to inquiry-based learning, encouraging every student to ask questions, to think for themselves and develop the skills to become confident, independent learners who will grow up to be balanced, caring and principled citizens. Our dedicated, international teaching body ensures that students achieve highly at the school. We believe in challenging young minds, ensuring that our focus is on every student achieving beyond expectations both inside and outside of the curriculum.
