At Little Flower International School, our commitment is to realise each student’s potential, hone their gifts and talents through education and child development.
We assure you that all processes are transparent, equitable and stress-free for both you and your child.
As one of the best long standing cambridge international schools in Rome, we aim to admit students who will thrive in our environment. We wish to provide the right support for them to excel and explore their talents.
We celebrate diversity, and welcome admissions from all nationalities.
Admissions will be subjected to availability due to limited places based on year group
Our assessment and interview, along with the supporting documents, will help us assess your child’s academic level prior to enrolment.
Parents must show evidence of work permit approval or a relevant and valid visa granted by Italian Immigration.
Students from non-native English speaking backgrounds, who achieve literacy and numeracy test scores beneath 50%, may be admitted to the school but are required to undertake additional English Language support and this additional cost is to be bored by the parent.
From time to time, students with significant academic, social or emotional needs will be admitted on a provisional basis. The conditions will be set out on the Letter of Offer, and will be monitored and reviewed regularly by Heads of School.
Application for places received in advance (e.g. 4-5 months ahead) will be placed on the waiting list until the school is able to determine the leavers and availability of places for the requested term.
To be placed on the waiting list, the School must receive a completed application form, application fee and all the required documents.
Where places are not available in the requested year group, applicants are placed on a waiting list. If an applicant fails to obtain a position during term for which he or she applied for, the application will be automatically transferred to the relevant waiting list for the following term and/or Academic Year Group, unless the application is withdrawn.
We admit students who can excel with the cambridge curriculum; especially those who will enjoy the opportunities to develop themselves academically, physically and socially.
Our enrolment runs throughout the year with no application deadlines. However, we encourage you to apply as early as possible to secure a place for your child.
A completed application takes about 5 working days, inclusive with the application fee and academic reports. However, an applicant with additional learning needs will might take longer.
