• the British curriculum enables them to discover and focus on their strengths and to succeed academically
• difficult subjects frequently become less daunting when they are taught in English, as teachers make linguistic allowances for students who are not native speakers of English
• the curriculum engenders independent thought and encourages teamwork
• students are introduced to different cultures and study two modern languages in addition to English
• the British curriculum enables students to succeed in Swiss universities and top universities abroad
• the teachers are English speakers
• students receive free coaching in the subjects they find difficult
• students are given extensive pastoral support
• there is a wide range of exciting optional courses and extracurricular activities
• laptops and iPads are only allowed to be used in lessons if the student has been approved to do so by our Examination boards, Foundations for Learning or if they have a medical certificate.
