The school's mission focuses on fostering excellence in various disciplines, including STEM/STEAM, while reducing the percentage of students with suspended judgments in Mathematics. Approved to establish a four-year high school class for outstanding students, the goal is to integrate humanistic, scientific, and technological knowledge, providing advanced skills in mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, and informatics (STEAM).
The MAJORANA Institute in Martina Franca is a school with various specializations, but a clear priority, as stated in the PTOF, is to increasingly overcome the transmissive dimension of teaching through the expansion of new teaching methodologies. It is a technical institute in the technological sector, with specializations in computer science, electronics, electrical engineering, chemistry/materials, and biotechnology. It is a professional institute with specializations in industrial and artisanal productions (Fashion) and Maintenance and Technical Assistance. The current Applied Sciences High School is currently the school where they integrate and collaborate with disciplines from the common area. The school also functions as a Second-level CPIA (Adult Education Center), with a focus on computer science, serving as a reference for adults seeking to obtain a diploma. The school has been leading the ITS Fashion project. This project is aimed at all teachers with permanent contracts and all disciplines within the school. The MAJORANA Institute is structured into various programs, with a clear objective, as outlined in the PTOF, of increasingly moving beyond traditional teaching, methods by incorporating new pedagogical approaches
