In earlier years science is taught as a combined subject. The School has a dedicated science lab for teaching and highly values learning through practical experiments and scientific method.

The school has had year on year growth, and now has 270 students across the age range of 3-18. In January 2021 the International School of Ticino became the only IB continuum school in the area and had our first DP class graduate in July 2023 with a high value added. Our cohort last summer achieved a high average score of 34, with university admission process for Cambridge held, and entrance confirmed to Universities such as Bocconi, Lausanne and other leading institutions. The school is one of several very successful Swiss and Italian schools belonging to Inspired, a worldwide network of premium schools offering global best practice and professional development.
