WHO WE ARE

OUR MISSION

The educational and teaching activity of our school aims at the global cultural growth of the students, enabling them to become Italian and European citizens, fully aware of the social context of our times. All our educational activities are inspired by the values of the European Union :
” Respect for human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law and respect for human rights, including rights of persons belonging to minorities” ( Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe,part I, art.2)
Our school maintains that all these values, shared by the member States of the European Union, must also be shared by the school community and must direct the whole teaching action.
The school curriculum provided for the “Istituti Tecnici Commerciali”, with its different IGEA, ITER and MERCURIO courses, has been redesigned by the “Riforma”, that enhances similar goals: the flexible and multipurpose professional training of qualified students who are able to work in various operational contexts, characterized by a growing automation of procedures, by constant changes produced by the steady development of the civil and taxation laws, by the rapid evolution of management systems and Information Technology, by the complex economic, social and administrative organization deriving from the close relationship between the member states of the E.U., where every European citizen is free to work and live.
