Canadian College Italy

Canadian College Italy is a university-preparatory, co-educational boarding high school located in the central Italian town of Lanciano, in the province of Abruzzo. The School offers a culturally rich and academically challenging curriculum for students in Grades 10, 11, and 12. It has been operating in Italy since 1995.

CCI debuted among Europe's private schools as the first Canadian school in Italy to offer an independent high school program. Operating under the supervision of the Ontario Ministry of Education, CCI prepares students for entrance into universities in the U.S.A., U.K., Canada, and Europe. Since its founding, our boarding school in Europe has grown to be a unique source of English-language private school education for both Canadian and International students. Our Philosophy & Objectives:

  • To translate the name of the school into a curricular and social reality.
  • To offer a special living environment: communal, foreign, and culturally rich.
  • To provide an extraordinary learning environment: small classes, an experienced and caring faculty, and quality resources.
  • To trigger a renewal in student learning through faculty accessibility, challenging academic demands, and focused study.
  • To consciously promote humanistic values.
  • To bring students to an acceptance of social responsibility as a basic right.
  • To inculcate in our students an acceptance of ownership for their learning.
  • To effect a change in student outlook through contact with the local Italian community and with the cultural and artistic aspects of Italy.
  • To develop the curriculum so that each course taught has a cultural component.
  • To involve students in the structure of their living and learning.

It takes courage for parents to send a child abroad, as it does for students to choose to move away from home. Yet, like most things that are difficult initially, the hardest part is to take that first step. As stated, our mission is: To provide a unique environment in which students experience a renaissance: academically, socially, and culturally. Much of this is achieved by being immersed in Italian culture. Our students quickly learn that there is a profound difference between visiting a country, and living within it a town that once seemed foreign, and perhaps overwhelming becomes a second home. Our school motto Perge et Valeas was chosen because it reflects the spirit of this quote. It translates from Latin into “If you proceed you shall succeed”.
