Achieving the project's objectives: - Personal and Collective Growth: to activate constructive confrontation through interpersonal exchange, the development of individual potential, the encouragement of self-confirmation and self-regulation of learning, while respecting and valuing the cultural and social peculiarities of each individual; - Social inclusion and democratic participation: promoting the development of sociability, autonomy and self-esteem in the context of an active and inclusive citizenship projected into the local reality and, by extension, national and European reality; - Linguistic knowledge and constructive confrontation: The Assisi International School was established as a bilingual school (ITA/ENG) and through the ERASMUS project had the objective of equipping its students with solid and appropriate linguistic knowledge. In this direction, with the implementation of the project we wanted to integrate their training, as well as offer an opportunity through which they could practise the language concretely and encourage confrontation with heterogeneous groups of people
Assisi International School (AIS) is a bilingual Montessori school offering education from Nursery to Secondary School. It aims to develop educational tools for the full development of students, to foster their effective personal growth and to promote a global approach to life. The school engages effectively in the education of students with special needs, seeking to provide the support necessary to improve their quality of life and promote social inclusion. Assisi International School adopts didactic principles based on the Montessori method, promoting bilingual learning and "Pedagogy for the Third Millennium", introducing the Cambridge curriculum and experimenting with debating as a new teaching methodology. The Montessori method disrupts traditional, vertical, frontal and passively notional teaching methods to promote learning in immersive contexts, where learning is the result of inner work and the environment must be set up in such a way as to allow the child to 'learn independently', observing, experimenting, manipulating, internalising concepts.
