The Institute’s mission is grounded in the educational principles of the Assumption, which are applied to the context of daily life where learning and growth take place:
The Assumption has been international from its very beginnings and is now present on every continent. The sisters bear witness to the richness that comes from engaging with and learning from cultures different from our own, as well as the strengthened sense of identity that arises from this exchange.
As a Catholic school, and in keeping with the teachings of the Gospel, we strive to see people of every ethnicity and nation as brothers and sisters in humanity, united by Jesus into one people of salvation.
Today, the English language serves as a key avenue for communication in the worlds of culture and work. Equally important are opportunities for connection with other peoples and cultures through study abroad programs and cultural exchanges.
This is why we are committed to being an international bilingual school. We emphasize the term international—aiming to cultivate students who are not only proud to be Italian and aware of their rich cultural heritage but also open to sharing and learning with others from around the world.
Starting in 2026, the School has expanded its educational offering with the introduction of the Cambridge English Programme, an enhanced English-language learning pathway that combines dedicated teaching materials with activities designed to prepare students for internationally recognised language certifications.
The programme enables students to progressively develop their English-language skills, complementing the standard English curriculum with structured opportunities for further learning and certification preparation.

The Solidarity Committee is committed to actively supporting the School and selected special projects in collaboration with the Community of Sisters.
The group was established with the aim of encouraging families to take an active role in school life, strengthening their sense of belonging to the educational community and supporting initiatives dedicated to students and parents.
The San Carpoforo Alumni and Friends Association, made up of former students, parents and teachers of the Institute, was established with the aim of maintaining a strong connection between alumni and the School, building a network of former students who can embody the educational values they have received and contribute to the future development of San Carpoforo.
