The Istituto Internazionale Edoardo Agnelli in Torino is a Salesian paritaria school in Mirafiori, founded at the wish of Senator Giovanni Agnelli in memory of his son Edoardo: the Salesian house gained legal status in 1938, and evening and day schools opened in autumn 1943 for the children of Fiat factory workers. Today it has a scuola media and two upper schools: a liceo scientifico (Cambridge and opzione scienze applicate) and an istituto tecnico tecnologico with IT and telecommunications, electronics and electrical engineering, and mechanics, mechatronics and energy tracks. Since the 2019-2020 school year the school has been a Cambridge International centre; from 2025-2026 the standard liceo scientifico with Latin became the Liceo Scientifico Cambridge, where chemistry, physics, mathematics and geography are partly taught in English under the Cambridge IGCSE programme, alongside the Italian curriculum. All other lessons are taught in Italian. The scuola media offers four tracks: reinforced English with a native speaker, music with Spanish, STEAM with German, and Campus Lab with an extended day. School runs five days a week with Saturdays free; afternoon study and learning support are available.

About the fees The school does not state tuition fees on its website: it says that as a paritaria it receives no state funding, the fee is usually paid in ten instalments and is well below the average cost per student in ministry tables. Low-income families can obtain the Piemonte region voucher and school discounts. A canteen lunch costs 6.50 EUR.
Admissions Enrolment in the scuola media, liceo and technical institute follows five steps: getting to know the school (website, video tour, open days), an online pre-enrolment form, confirmation of receipt with any learning difficulty certificates attached, an interview with the director and, if positive, payment of the 300 EUR enrolment fee, after which the place is reserved. Pre-enrolment does not guarantee a place. The school says it tries to help low-income families, who can also obtain the Piemonte region school voucher. On foreign students the PTOF only says the school is preparing for growing numbers and training teachers to teach Italian as a second language.

CambridgeCambridge International Education
Part of the University of Cambridge. It allows a school to teach the Cambridge programmes and to enter pupils for the exams. There are four stages and they are authorised separately: primary, lower secondary, IGCSE and A Level. If the stages are known they are named in the line below; if that line is missing, the school does not publish them, and the Cambridge registry does not show stages either - it gives only the name of the centre, the country and whether private candidates are accepted. Cambridge calls what it does registration rather than accreditation, and the network holds about ten thousand schools.
What the badge means for this school. The school is allowed to run this programme and to award its certificate. This is a confirmation of the programme, not a judgement on the school as a whole. The entry stands in the organisation's public register - anyone can check it. At this school: IGCSE (ages 14-16). IGCSE means exams at around Year 10 or 11, the British counterpart of a lower secondary leaving certificate.
Register to check for yourself, and the full guide →National programme
The state school programme of the country the school stands in: it is set by that country's ministry of education, which also licenses the school and awards the leaving certificate. That certificate is used for entry to local universities, and abroad it is matched to the local one.
What this means for this school. This entry does not count towards the score, and that is deliberate. Every lawful school in a country works to the national programme, so on its own it tells one school apart from no other - unlike the French, German or Russian programmes, which are carried abroad and confirmed by the register of their organisation. We show it because a parent needs to know what programme their child is taught and what certificate the child will get. Counting it would lift the whole ranking at once and still tell nobody apart.
Exams and destinations from the school's official website
Exam results Over the last 3 years 24 liceo graduates passed the esame di Stato with 100 out of 100, 9 of them with honours (lode).

Reviews
No reviews yet. The community rating counts towards the score once a school has five verified reviews - until then we do not show a zero, so as not to mislead.

A low score here means the school does not write about this, not that the school does not have it: a school with good security and a sparse site will score low. A school can fill in its profile, and the score will be counted again.
The score is counted from 7 of the 9 criteria.Only those with checkable data count: programmes and accreditations from official registers, the fee from a published price list. Where it says "scored on the median", the school has no data and the middle of the list is put in its place, so that a gap gives no advantage. Admissions, teaching staff and reviews come in as their data arrives.
