A BACK TO SCHOOL IN TOTAL SAFETY FOR THE ISTITUTO MARANGONI COMMUNITY 

The new academic year is approaching.

On 12th October courses will start again in the classrooms and laboratories of the three Italian schools. From 12th to 16th October we will start with the Open Week: a series of appointments for the presentation of the new academic year and of the many innovations planned for the year 2020/2021. From 19th October we will start the lessons.

In view of the resumption of all activities, Istituto Marangoni has strengthened its services to ensure the safe return of its students.

Among the new tools for supporting students, an important place is given to the exclusive close collaboration with International SOS. Thanks to this partnership, all students will have access to a multilingual medical and psychological assistance service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. All this through a simple APP and a dedicated telephone line. Istituto Marangoni is the first company in Italy in the Education sector in fashion, design and arts to have an agreement with International SOS.

Additionally, an exclusive service has been designed to welcome students ready to start their first year of studies. Istituto Marangoni has created a special Welcome Pack that includes: a welcome and pick-up service at the airport; an information kit on Milan and Florence, including useful numbers and services offered by the city; a set of APPs for delivery services.

These important and useful services add up to the security measures put in place by Istituto Marangoni. Indeed, starting from May, all Italian schools have adapted their facilities and procedures to the anti Covid-19 rules.

The continuous work of these months has made the School of Fashion in Milan the first Italian school to receive the Covid-Free certification issued by IMQ, the Italian Quality Mark Institute. The “IMQ Covid-19 Restriction” certificate was issued after a careful verification and inspection of the protocols and measures implemented by Istituto Marangoni. It is the guarantee – by a third and independent body – of the authenticity and effectiveness of the measures taken so far to better protect students.

In addition to these measures, the School of Fashion in Milan, given the large number of its community, has created a special project called Back to School. The aim – once again – is to further strengthen the safety of the many students who crowd the offices in Via Verri and Piazza San Babila.

To achieve such a result, the School of Fashion in Milan relied on the scientific and international experience of ADAPT and the design skills of eFM.
An ad hoc safety procedure has been drawn up for each teaching activity. This assessment was the basis for an intelligent reorganisation of school spaces – classrooms, laboratories, libraries – as well as common areas, such as the cafeteria and break areas. For each of these spaces a new layout has been defined in line with the security measures that require a distance of at least one metre between one station and another.

After the physical redesign of the spaces, the academic calendar has been reorganised – through a special algorithm developed exclusively for the School of Fashion in Milan – so as to guarantee all students the possibility to attend classes in presence, in total safety. The algorithm itself has allowed to verify the best capacity of the classrooms, as well as the flows in and out of the buildings organising the teachings in a new way and trying to limit as much as possible the risk of gatherings.

Precisely to strengthen security within the School of Fashion in Milan, the Back to School project has provided a smart transformation of the buildings in Via Verri and San Babila. A series of sensors have been installed in the most sensitive points of the buildings. These will be in dialogue with the students through a series of monitors and a dedicated APP and will allow to regulate in an orderly way the access to the school, but also the booking of places in the library and in the area dedicated to the cafeteria.

The digital revolution thus affects the management of the daily life of students at Istituto Marangoni. Accessing the school, booking a seat in the library or in the cafeteria will be possible through your smartphone and all this is to ensure an intelligent and safe resumption of educational activities. This is a step towards a new evolution of Istituto Marangoni.

Istituto Marangoni was born here.  Here the great names of Italian prêt-â-porter were trained. We are in the city centre, a few steps from the path of fashion excellence, Via Montenapoleone. Milan is the city of fashion par excellence; here new ideas and styles are continually developed. And Istituto Marangoni students find the tools to interpret and guide and grow through study programs that are constantly updated becoming highly skilled professionals in the fashion industry at the highest creative, organizational and business levels.

To qualify, as an independent third party, the authenticity and effectiveness of the measures taken so far to best protect students, one of the most authoritative international certification, evaluation and inspection bodies will be involved: the Italian Institute of the Quality Mark. IMQ, for over 70 years, has been working in the field of safety and quality, also acting as a technical reference point for Ministries and competent Authorities for all the checks necessary for controlling the market.

The new school of design is located in Via Cerva, in the heart of the city, in one of the areas full of the most important national and international design brands.This space is completely new and will be dedicated to fostering environments that are strategically useful to the most strategic to the subject: from internal and industrial design studios to visual design.Here students will find the stimuli and skills to grow and become designers of excellence, who are capable of operating in a vast array of professional environments.
