The Liceo Linguistico Internazionale Grazia Deledda is a prestigious, long-standing international linguistic high school located in Genoa. It is recognized as the oldest linguistic school in Italy, offering a comprehensive educational path focused on foreign languages and international projects.

Teaching approach

The school is committed to providing a safe, welcoming, and stimulating environment where students can grow and mature. Its educational approach emphasizes internationalism, viewing language as a practical tool for learning rather than an end in itself, and aims to foster cultural growth and conscious citizenship. The institution operates under the management of the FULGIS Foundation.

Programmes

The school offers a diverse linguistic curriculum featuring various language combinations, including English paired with German, Russian, Korean, Chinese, Japanese, or Arabic, as well as a French-English ESABAC pathway. The academic program is defined by the Three-Year Educational Offer Plan (PTOF), which integrates classroom instruction with extra-curricular initiatives, language certifications, and PCTO (work-related learning) projects. Education in civic responsibility is also a core component of the curriculum.
