Egazio Danti uses experienced collaborative teaching. Starting from the youngest students two or three teachers co-teach different groups of children of kindergartens. Moreover, primary and secondary schools have built networks with different schools of the same territory. Almost all the teachers from different departments share everyday school activities, multidisplinary workshops and collaborative teaching. Following this innovative approach all the school curriculum is based on project-based learning and the vertical curriculum for skills which means that the curriculum is focused on student learning goals, including standards-based content and skills such as critical thinking/problem solving, collaboration, and self-management.
