Centro Studi Casnati

The school emphasizes order, discipline, and constant commitment, fostering an environment of mutual respect and collaboration between students, teachers, and families. It aims to cultivate autonomous thinkers who possess a sense of responsibility and solidarity, while remaining critical of transient social trends. The educational project seeks to balance academic rigor with the development of personal values and practical life skills.

The school offers eight secondary education paths: Liceo Linguistico, Liceo Artistico, Istituto Aeronautico, Istituto Alberghiero, Liceo Sportivo, and Liceo Scientifico (with an option for Applied Sciences and Game Development). As a Cambridge International School, it integrates international curricula, including the possibility of obtaining IGCSE certificates and the Cambridge ICE diploma. The academic offering is supported by digital textbooks, e-learning platforms, and a curriculum that combines traditional subjects with specialized professional training.

Over its 50-year history, the school has graduated 6,456 students. Graduates benefit from job placement coordination and university orientation services. The school maintains strong links with the professional sector, evidenced by high employment rates for hospitality graduates and ongoing collaborations with industry partners such as NABA (Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti) and various professional federations.

The school provides a dedicated tutor for each class to monitor student progress and address learning difficulties. Support services include optional afternoon remedial sessions, personalized interventions via e-learning platforms, and specialized support for students with specific learning disabilities (DSA). Additionally, a counseling psychologist is available on-site to support student well-being.

The school provides a comprehensive orientation service for students transitioning from middle school, including open days, info days, mini-stages, and individual meetings. It offers scholarships such as "Talenti Emergenti" and provides information on regional financial contributions like "Dote Scuola." Prospective families can access detailed documentation, brochures, and guidance on the application process through the school's website and orientation events.

The school operates on a "short week" schedule, with classes held from Monday to Friday. Morning sessions conclude at 13:50, while afternoon sessions, when scheduled, end at 15:00 or 15:50. The academic year is divided into two periods, typically corresponding to two semesters, with intermediate and final assessments.

The campus is equipped with digital classrooms featuring interactive whiteboards and provides each student with a personal notebook computer. Facilities include specialized laboratories tailored to the various study paths, such as a restaurant and catering facility for the hospitality institute and flight-related resources for the aeronautical institute. The school also provides dedicated areas for afternoon study, secure storage for mobile devices, and a canteen service.

Students participate in a variety of projects and courses, including specialized labs and company internships that provide early exposure to the professional world. The school organizes events such as photography contests, robotics competitions, and language exchange programs, including collaborations with institutions like the Penn State University. Additionally, students engage in practical projects, such as professional translation work for local publications and culinary activities in the school's own restaurant and catering facilities.
