Since 1995, Accademia del Giglio has been arranging Italian Language, Art and Culture courses for school groups.

Our school has been constantly co-operating since 2004 with the Italian Language department of an American university, the Bard College (here you will find a letter of presentation for our school, written by Professor Joseph Luzzi, from Bard College).
The University of Kansas as its Italian base for its abroad study programme.
Also, other occasional but intensive co-operations have been arranged with other institutes in the past few years, such as:

Campion School (UK),
Otterbein College (Ohio, USA),
De La Salle Schulen Marianum (Austria),
Newman College (Australia),
Long Road Sixth Form College (Cambridge, UK),
Blakehurst High School (Sidney, Australia).
Lycée Flora Tristan (Montereau, France) in the frame of the Leonardo da Vinci programme, sponsored by the European Union.
St Andrews (Johannesburg, South Africa).


We can tailor lessons according to the group's needs. The learning program and the timetable can be therefore fitted.
Please let us know your requests regarding dates, schedules and duration for the course your group wishes to attend and we will reply and notify you all the details regarding prices, schedules and extra-curricular activities (visits to museums, dinners out, trips to the others Tuscan towns, etc...).

Courses can be taught either in Italian or in English.

At the end of each course the student will be awarded a certificate of attendance. Students may receive credits.

We can also provide you all kind of accommodation you need.
