Welcome from Head of School

IST as a proud IB World School is dedicated to educate the whole child with our programmes aimed at developing students who become responsible global citizens. We want to broaden our students' minds as well as their opportunities.

Thank you for your interest in the International School of Turin. IST is the oldest international school in Piedmont and has been welcoming international and local students since 1963. It is the only school in the area to be a full-continuum IB school as well as being accredited with both CIS and NEASC and having been granted Parità Scolastica (national equivalency) by the Italian Ministry of Education for its Primary program.

We are an international community that cherishes the learning opportunities offered by the local culture and environment and aims at offering all students, both international and local, a uniquely enriching growth experience.

Students' well-being, as well as their academic development, is at the heart of our educational project. Under the guidance of our highly qualified faculty, our students get ready to face the challenges of a dynamic and ever-changing world.

Our IST community is based on students, families and staff working together to support children in reaching their full potential as balanced, open-minded and principled individuals as well as life-long learners.

If you wish to learn more about us and join our community, our Admissions team will be delighted to meet with you.

Kind regards,

Lara Pazzi
