EDUCATION In ITALY The education levels in Italy are known as: kindergarten (scuola materna) (three to five years old) elementary school (scuola primaria) (six to ten years old) middle school (scuola media) (eleven to fourteen years old) high school (scuola superiore, liceo) (from age fourteen onwards) university (università) Kindergarten/Pre-school (Scuola Materna) For ages three to five, the scuola materna provides optional education for children and every child is entitled to a place. It is not obligatory for a child and in Italy kindergarten is free except in private schools. Primary school School in Italy is compulsory from the age of six onwards and children learn to read and write and study mathematics, geography, Italian, English, science, music, computer studies, religion (optional) and social studies. The five-year primary cycle is divided into two parts, the first two years concentrating on basic skills and the final three years introducing pupils to broader concepts. Around 15 per cent of primary schools are full-time schools ( scuola a tempo pieno), where children attend both mornings and afternoons for five days per week. The timetable usually includes one free where children can have lunch in the school canteen or go home. In the fifth year of primary school, pupils must usually obtain a primary school leaving certificate (diploma della licenza elementare) to progress to lower secondary school. Middle school Attendance at lower secondary school (scuola media) is compulsory for all children between the ages of 11 and 14. Students are required to attend 30 hours of classes per week, though some schools may offer additional classes if there is demand Every term, each student receives a teacher's report outlining their aptitude, behaviour and achievement. At the end of the third year, pupils sit a standard examination consisting of written papers in Italian, as well as exams in mathematics, science and a foreign language. An oral exam is also administered in all subjects except religion. Successful students are awarded their lower secondary school diploma (diploma di licenza media) and move on to upper secondary school. .
