P.L.O.C.R.S. Collegio Gallio

The school is founded on solid Christian values, aiming to provide a complete education that balances high-level academic knowledge with moral integrity. It emphasizes the development of "straight-backed" students who are prepared to face life's challenges with strength and honesty. The educational approach is highly personalized, treating each student as a unique individual rather than applying a standardized methodology.

The school offers a comprehensive educational pathway including the Asilo Nido (0-3 years), Sezione Primavera, Scuola dell'Infanzia (3-5 years), Scuola Primaria (6-10 years), and Scuola Secondaria (11-13 years). At the high school level, it provides two main pathways: a Liceo Quadriennale Internazionale and a Liceo Scientifico STEM. The curriculum integrates advanced digital didactics, developed in collaboration with the CNR-ITD and Apple Education, and places a strong emphasis on high-level English language proficiency.

The school employs a dedicated pedagogist who works closely with teachers and educators to support students and families throughout the learning and growth process. Additionally, the school provides personalized learning paths, adapting content, methodologies, and assessments to meet the specific needs of each student to foster an inclusive environment.

The school operates an "Open Day permanente" (permanent open day) that allows families to visit the campus and meet with the relevant educational coordinator by appointment. Admissions priority is given to siblings of current students and children of alumni, provided registration deadlines are met; otherwise, admission is based on the order of application. The school is a paritaria institution, meaning it is a private school that performs a public service within the national education system, with its diplomas holding full legal value.

The school operates on a five-day week, from Monday to Friday. To accommodate working parents, it offers an extended schedule from 7:30 to 18:30, which includes pre-school and post-school care. The annual tuition fee is payable in five bimonthly installments.

Located in the center of Como, the campus spans over 10,000 square meters and features extensive gardens and parks used for experiential learning and play. Indoor facilities include modern gymnasiums, sports fields, an auditorium, and the "Aula Magna" and "Aula Pigato," which are available for events. The school also operates an internal kitchen providing self-service meals for students.

The school offers a wide range of activities, including sports, didactic, and cultural programs, particularly for students who remain on campus until the evening. Recent activities have included sailing, hockey, pet education, and visits to educational farms and museums. The school also organizes international projects and field trips to collaborate with local institutions and associations.
