About international schools in Naples, Italy

International schools serving Naples are a relatively small group of private, mainly English-medium providers that sit alongside Italian bilingual and francophone options; you will find US standards-based programmes with AP courses, Cambridge/IGCSE pathways and schools that follow the Italian ministerial programme alongside international content. English is usually the language of instruction, with Italian taught across the age range and some schools offering CLIL bilingual strands or French-language provision for families seeking that pathway. Tuition varies by age and programme: family budgets for Naples typically need to allow from roughly EUR 6,000 a year at primary level up to around EUR 9,000 - 16,000 or more in the senior years, with extra charges for transport, meals and exam fees. The local school year begins in September (exact start dates are set by region) and many international schools operate rolling admissions or require applications several months ahead of a September start, so contact schools early to confirm assessment and deposit requirements.

FAQs for Italy

Which curricula can I expect to find in Naples' international schools?
You will meet a mix of curricula: US standards-based programmes (including Advanced Placement courses), British/Cambridge IGCSE pathways and Italian-accredited bilingual schools that combine the Italian ministerial programme with English instruction; some providers also offer francophone programmes or international frameworks such as IB or Cambridge exam preparation. Choice is school-specific, so check each school’s published curriculum and any external accreditations before applying.
How much should I budget for fees and extras?
Tuition in Naples varies by school, age and programme: independent guides put typical primary fees in the region of about EUR 6,000 - 11,000 and senior-year tuition commonly EUR 9,000 - 16,000, with transport, meals, books and exam entries typically adding around 15 - 25% on top. Individual school schedules show the full breakdown (annual tuition, registration fees, deposits and optional extras), so ask for the school’s latest fee sheet and what is included.
What languages of instruction are used and how is Italian included?
Most international schools use English as the primary language of instruction while including Italian language and, at many schools, an Italian curriculum strand so children keep up with local language and culture. Several schools use CLIL (content and language integrated learning) to teach non-language subjects in English and Italian, and a small number of francophone or fully bilingual Italian-English schools are also available.
When should I apply and what is the admissions rhythm?
The academic year in Italy starts in September, with the precise first day decided by the regional calendar, so most international school intakes are timed for a September start; many schools run rolling admissions but still require several months’ notice for places, testing and paperwork. Contact schools as soon as you know your move date to request an application pack, ask about entrance assessments and confirm deposit and refund conditions.
What ages and final qualifications do Naples international schools cover?
Providers around Naples typically cover early years and primary through to secondary; several schools offer continuous Pre-K or Primary up to Grade 12 and prepare students for a range of end qualifications such as an American high-school diploma with AP options, Cambridge examinations, or the Italian maturità pathway where the school holds paritaria recognition. If your family expects to use Italian universities or a particular national system, check whether the school issues the nationally recognised qualification you need.
