The German School of Milan (German Deutsche Schule Mailand, Italian Scuola Germanica di Milano, DSM), founded in 1886, is an international institution located in Milan, Italy.

It is one of the three German schools in Italy, the other two based in Rome and Genoa, in which subjects are taught in both German and Italian.

It follows the German educational program from preschool to secondary school, finally leading to graduation with both the German Abitur and the Italian Maturità Scientifica.

History

The German School of Milan was founded in 1886 as an educational centre for children of German businessmen living in northern Italy. Due to the drastic historical events of the early 20th century, its address changed numerous times. Its current location, close to the historical centre of Milan, was set in 1957 with great acclaim for its bilingual nature.

In the seventies, the school and the Italian government established an educational curriculum which integrates subjects taught in Italian in to the existing program in order to recognize graduates from this school as students of a governmental "liceo scientifico". This grants them access to universities in both Italy and Germany.

The main building of the school underwent reconstruction and a new building was established for the Kindergarten and other facilities. The expansion of the school was completed and inaugurated in December 2007.
