Si tratta del Piano dell'Offerta Formativa che ogni scuola italiana propone.
Come tradurre il concetto in inglese, dato che non credo esista una traduzione ufficiale?

Grazie!

English translation:Educational Programme
Explanation:
As Wiki explains below, this is an educational "plan" or programme for schools in a given area. It is written into Italian law and very specific to Italy as far as I know.

Educational Offer


Explanation:
In the past I wouldn't have suggested this, but now I see that many schools in the UK advertise their 'educational offer', meaning more that a curriculum of courses in a school, but also includes the mission, goals and methods defined by that school.
