What the chats answered
When choosing a school, it's important to consider the child's language level. The earlier they start studying in an Italian school, the easier the adaptation will be. Many parents note that it's better to involve the child in the learning process right away, even if they don't know the language.
Some families choose Russian schools for the first years of education to ease the transition. However, experience shows that an Italian school with language tutors can be more effective for further education.
It's also important to enroll in school and look for housing in advance. This will help avoid stress during the move and provide the child with comfortable conditions for studying and living.
Some parents note that there are many opportunities for extracurricular activities in Italy, which helps children adapt and develop faster. This can include sports, arts, or other clubs.
