INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE DIPLOMA
The IB Diploma is the culmination of the IB Continuum. Each of the six subjects taken in the Diploma is graded from 7 to 1 and the overall sum is combined to give a total score that incorporates further points earned in Theory of Knowledge and the Extended Essay. The Diploma is awarded to students with at least 24 points, providing certain general conditions are met, and the maximum number of points earned in the Diploma is 45. A small number of students may take a seventh subject, although this does not contribute to the official IB Diploma score.

LICENZA MEDIA
We encourage Italian families to ensure that their children obtain the Diploma conclusivo del primo ciclo d’istruzione (“Licenza Media”) qualification and preparation for this is incorporated as an integral part of education at ISM. Our mother-tongue Italian programmes in Primary and early Secondary Schools lead to this goal as the culmination of studies in Grade 9.

LICENZA ELEMENTARE
Even though the Licenza Elementare has been abolished in the state system, students from schools that do not follow the Italian national curriculum still need to obtain idoneità to qualify for entry into state secondary schools and to be admitted to Diploma del primo ciclo exams. That is why we continue to enable students to obtain idoneità at the end of grade 6.
