Our School

The School has been existing since 1974, at first as a branch of Bergamo‘s Liceo Lussana, then, with its present name GALILEO GALILEI, as an independent Institute.
Since then the school has constantly increased its classes and courses. In school year 2009/2010 Liceo Galilei has 36 classes divided into two courses: the Scientific Course and (since 1992) the Language Course.
