IIS Galvani, Milan · School year 2025/2026
Student representative
I was elected student representative for the 2025/2026 school year. Most of the work is organisational: turning what people want into something with a schedule, a budget and someone responsible for it. The clearest example is the cogestione, the days of student-run activities the school holds once a year.
Cogestione 2026
A few days when regular lessons are replaced by workshops and talks that students propose and run themselves.
I was one of three students who organised the 2026 edition end to end: reviewing proposals for outside guests, building the daily schedule across three days, and handling logistics once it was running. The proposals covered seven subject areas.
What the feedback said
A rating only means something if you actually ask for it.
Afterwards I ran an anonymous survey to see whether the numbers backed up how the days had felt. The same answers pointed at what to fix next time - mainly the length of the event and how crowded some spaces got.
Questions about this?
Happy to talk about how it was organised, what I’d change, or anything else on this site.
