Zurich.<br \/>The four-year programme covers the UK Fifth and Sixth Forms (Years 10 to 13), preparing students for IGCSE and A-level examinations. Except for modern languages, the language of instruction is English.<\/p><p>The Hull\u2019s School campus consists of four buildings located near the Zurich Opera House. More than 300 students from Swiss and international families attend the college.<\/p><p>Hull&#8217;s School offers an alternative route to university and other types of higher education for academically talented and motivated adolescents. Many teenagers who finish Year 9 at a Swiss secondary school would prefer full-time education to an apprenticeship, especially if they had the opportunity to attend a school with an attractive curriculum, motivated learners, and teachers who take a genuine interest in their students. Unfortunately, Swiss Gymnasia have limited capacities, and their entrance requirements can be very challenging, particularly for young people from multicultural families.<\/p><p>In our experience, Zurich&#8217;s adolescents are strongly drawn to schooling in English and thrive in a British educational environment, regardless of whether they come from families with a Swiss or an international background. The British educational system allows for more specialisation than the Swiss Matura, fostering the development of students\u2019 individual academic strengths. It opens doors to universities in Switzerland as well as to leading universities abroad, including those in the UK Russell Group. It also paves the way for careers in business. Switzerland&#8217;s many multinational corporations, for example, prefer their management to have sound academic backgrounds, and favour university graduates.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d9003c8 e-con-full c-box pad-t-s e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"d9003c8\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-19fa245 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"19fa245\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5a73473 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5a73473\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInDown&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Students<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6f26ba5 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6f26ba5\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-680480b linkmediumblue elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"680480b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInDown&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:300}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Students come from either Swiss or international families.
