WELCOME FROM OUR PRINCIPAL

O'Gara Philip - ISR Principal

At International School Rimini we offer a high-quality education based on the IB programs (PYP and MYP), with the aim of forming critical thinkers, responsible citizens and empathetic individuals.

We put the student at the center of the educational process, encouraging curiosity, creativity and love of learning, in a welcoming and inclusive environment.

We enhance the cultural heritage of Rimini as an educational resource and, thanks to the collaboration with BDC School of Milan, we enrich the school experience with shared resources and skills.
