Our institute is situated in Frosinone 80 km south of the capital city, Rome.The school has about 770 students, aged from 13 to 19, of mixed genders and abilities. The students from our school specialize in developing both a deep awareness of the history of visual Arts most of all in western and European Cultures as well as a large variety of drawing, architecture, camera technique skills.Furthermore, IIS Bragaglia Music High School (the only music high school in Frosinone district) develops specific competences in musical performance, composition and interpretation. Our students can also specialize in vocational activities in the field of electronics, mechanics and ortodontics working in cooperation with many local and national stakeholders .

Our school is very active in Music and Art competitions and in organizing Music/Art Events.Art products-photos, videos, portraits, Multimedia works, statues, engravings, murales are shown in Exhibitions twice a year in our Council Hall. The best ones are diffused through local and at times national media. Therefore, our collaboration in the project will be mainly focused on going beyond unidimensional approaches - that is a multiple programming approach according to students’ abilities, needs and interests.

Our Institute is a also a CTS ( Centro Territoriale di Supporto), a highly qualified Teacher Training Center in the whole province of Frosinone aimed at transferring theoretical knowledge and good practices in education. In coherence with the three-year formative offer plan (PTOF) of our school and the Institute Self-Assessment Report (RAV), we have been carrying out some projects concerning social inclusion because of the multicultural heterogeneity of the students attending our school ( over the last years the number of migrants coming mainly from Albania, Romania, Poland,Ukraine, Russia, Nigeria has dramatically increased in our area); we have been planning laboratory didactics, introducing a cooperative learning approach, flipped classroom strategies and making wide use of multimedia and softwares as study support.

Teams of qualified teachers/office coordinators already work together as a task force group for planning and implementing whole-school digital innovation.Our school has been partecipating in PON projects of our National Ministry of Education for many years.

Moreover, IIS Bragaglia boasts a high-qualified staff of support teachers ( who take care of students with special needs (we have currently 57 students among disabled and those with special needs at various level).
