About Starling English School
Giving Your Child a Flying Start
At Starling English School, we believe in the power of early language acquisition to unlock a world of opportunity for young children. We are proud to have created a warm and welcoming "family feeling" environment where children feel safe and supported as they embark on their English learning journey.
Situated in the Balduina neighborhood in Rome, Italy, we offer English immersion education from a very young age, utilizing both British and American English. Through a combination of free play, independence-building activities, and a focus on communication, we empower children to become confident learners.
Our immersive approach allows children to develop a strong foundation in the language, setting them up for success in their future academic endeavors. Our small class sizes and mixed-age classrooms allow for individualized attention and a strong sense of community.
At Starling, learning English can continue beyond the nursery and pre-school years through a variety of after-school programs, including small group and private lessons. We understand the importance of ongoing English language development, and offer these to solidify fluency as children transition to primary education.
