The Becoming Education model<\/h2>\n

We believe that every child thrives best when they have meaningful experiences, genuine relationships<\/strong> and an environment that nurtures their natural curiosity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It is precisely this curiosity that we turn into the drive to learn<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Our educational model is based on solid pedagogical principles<\/strong>, backed up by neuroscience: we learn best through hands-on experience<\/strong>, by experiencing positive emotions<\/strong>, and by sharing the journey<\/strong> with our classmates.<\/p>\n

That is why we have created an environment where emotions and learning go hand in hand<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”box-affiancati waypoint-trigger”][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”10097″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” el_class=”immagine fade fade__alt fade–sx no-margin-bottom”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1781519565019{background-color: #F7F7F7 !important;}” el_class=”testo fade fade__alt fade–dx no-margin-bottom giallo-sfondo-pieno”]Our programme is bilingual (Italian-English) from nursery school onwards<\/strong>. We combine the IB\u2019s experiential approach with the guidelines of the National Curriculum, following a spiral model<\/strong>: concepts are revisited over time and explored in greater depth.<\/p>\n

Studying is not an end in itself, but aims to build a solid foundation on which to grow<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

At YIES, children and young people grow up in a welcoming and stimulating environment<\/strong>. The spaces encourage social interaction and make every child feel like a key player. The teachers work as a close-knit team, working together to design a programme that adapts to the children, not the other way round<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Families are our allies. We believe that schools and parents should work together<\/strong>, sharing experiences and educational goals.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_raw_html css=”” el_class=”no-margin-bottom”]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[\/vc_raw_html][vc_empty_space height=”50″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”verde-sfondo border-radius-sezione-top border-radius-sezione-bottom”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”no-margin-bottom”]<\/p>\n

At the heart of our approach<\/h3>\n

We turn children\u2019s natural curiosity into a drive to learn<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Meaningful experiences<\/strong>, meaningful relationships<\/strong> and an environment<\/strong> that nurtures each child\u2019s individuality: that is how we truly grow.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

State-recognised Italian school and IB World School<\/h3>\n

A qualification recognised by the Department for Education and meeting international IB standards.<\/p>\n

Part of a global network of over 5,000 schools: a solid foundation and skills that are valuable anywhere<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1782133045378{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Integrated bilingual curriculum<\/h3>\n

Italian and English are taught side by side every day<\/strong>, starting from nursery school, as part of a programme designed to bring together the Italian Ministry\u2019s guidelines and the IB framework.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_raw_html css=”” el_class=”no-margin-bottom”]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[\/vc_raw_html][vc_empty_space height=”50″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”giallo-sfondo border-radius-sezione-top border-radius-sezione-bottom”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”no-margin-bottom”]<\/p>\n

How we learn every day<\/h2>\n

Active approaches that put children at the centre[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1781519746036{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Learning together<\/h3>\n

Peer Education and Cooperative Learning:<\/strong> learning together is more effective. Small-group work, peer tutoring, collaboration.<\/p>\n

Sometimes a concept is easier to understand when a classmate explains it.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1781519774879{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Spiral learning<\/h3>\n

Experiential learning is based on a spiral approach to learning<\/strong>, enabling pupils to revisit and consolidate<\/strong> their knowledge over time.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1782133059977{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Active and inquiry-based learning<\/h3>\n

We don\u2019t just listen: we do, we try, we build<\/strong>. We start with curiosity<\/strong>, not with answers.<\/p>\n

Questions \u2192 Research \u2192 Verification \u2192 Synthesis. The children take centre stage and develop their own way of learning<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1782133074706{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Teachers make all the difference<\/h3>\n

A close-knit team, united by a shared vision<\/strong>. They design the programme themselves, with passion and expertise.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the Becoming Academy<\/strong>, teachers keep up to date with innovative teaching methods, emotional intelligence and inclusion.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=”border-radius-40 img-mobile background-100 img-mobile–fix” width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1778058062743{margin-right: 15px !important;margin-bottom: 50px !important;margin-left: 15px !important;background-image: url(https:\/\/yieschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/yies-come-si-impara.webp?id=943) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_raw_html css=”” el_class=”no-margin-bottom”]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[\/vc_raw_html][vc_empty_space height=”50″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”blu-sfondo border-radius-sezione-top border-radius-sezione-bottom”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”no-margin-bottom”]<\/p>\n

Not just facts: life skills[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes”][vc_column_inner el_class=”img-mobile border-radius-40 background-100 img-mobile–fix” width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1778058067099{margin-right: 15px !important;margin-bottom: 50px !important;margin-left: 15px !important;background-image: url(https:\/\/yieschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/yies-crescere-come-persone.webp?id=944) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1782133113893{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Social and emotional learning (SEL)<\/h3>\n

Empathy and active listening are cultivated every day.<\/p>\n

The SEL workshop is our flagship programme<\/strong>: one hour a week with an educationalist to help children recognise their emotions, manage conflicts and build healthy relationships.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1782133119646{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Formative assessment<\/h3>\n

Let\u2019s focus on the journey, not just the outcome. Formative assessment ensures that each student\u2019s progress is continuously monitored<\/strong> by evaluating their starting point, effort and progress<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It also enables teachers to review and adjust activities<\/strong> to ensure that the expected learning outcomes are achieved.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1781520882111{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Potential orientation<\/h3>\n

Let\u2019s not wait until their final year to ask ourselves “what will they do when they grow up?<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n

From nursery onwards, we work to help every child recognise their strengths, cope with challenges and build self-confidence.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1782133134177{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Nutrition education<\/h3>\n

Let\u2019s build a healthy relationship with food<\/strong> from an early age. School lunches are about socialising, enjoyment, culture and learning about healthy eating.<\/p>\n

As part of this initiative, we involve parents through the Taste Club<\/strong>, the flagship project of the school-family partnership.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_raw_html css=”” el_class=”no-margin-bottom”]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[\/vc_raw_html][vc_empty_space height=”50″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”rosso-sfondo border-radius-sezione-top border-radius-sezione-bottom”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”no-margin-bottom”]<\/p>\n

Where you can learn<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Spaces designed to encourage independence and discovery[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” el_class=”stessa-altezza”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1781520980752{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Environments that educate<\/h3>\n

Flexible classrooms, STEAM labs, spaces for physical activity and creative expression. Spaces for experimenting, making mistakes and trying again.<\/p>\n

Every environment speaks to the children<\/strong> and becomes part of the learning process.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1782133150065{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Outdoor Education<\/h3>\n

The outdoors is an integral part of learning. We regularly go outside to explore, observe and experiment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Schools and families: allies<\/h3>\n

The shared responsibility agreement is our tool. Meetings, exhibitions, events, one-to-one sessions, and discussions with experts.<\/p>\n

And parenting support<\/strong> on topics such as emotions, digital issues and bullying.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1782133161078{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}” el_class=”border-radius-40 no-margin-bottom box-descrittivo”]<\/p>\n

Inclusion and equal opportunities<\/h3>\n
