International education, in the Alps
We offer an international education, with teachers and students from many countries around the world following a global curriculum together. At the same time, we are deeply rooted in the beautiful Swiss canton of Ticino, and we take our commitment to the Italian language and cultural heritage seriously.
Only IB Continuum school in Ticino
We are the only school in Ticino that offers an IB education from ages 3 to 18 and have been educating students here for ten years. Soon, we will also be introducing the IBCP, making us a school that offers all four IB world programmes.
Excellent canton language teaching
Our students become confident communicators in English, Italian, and German, opening doors to top universities and employment opportunities worldwide. We also teach French and Spanish to the highest level and support speakers of other languages such as Mandarin and Russian.
Warm community
We are a small, welcoming school with strong family involvement. Teachers know their students and the families who support them personally, and we provide strong pastoral care along with inclusive, supportive teaching.
World class teachers
Our teachers form a dedicated, hard-working team that collaborates closely to deliver academic excellence. We use leading educational technology and rigorous teaching practices, benefiting from our membership in the Inspired group of global schools.
We are thrilled to announce the grand opening of our International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Centre, marking a new milestone in our commitment to providing world-class education. This state-of-the-art facility is designed to foster critical thinking and collaboration, ensuring a place where students can prepare for the International Baccalaureate examinations. With experienced faculty and cutting-edge resources, we are confident that our students will thrive in an enriching, supportive, and dynamic learning environment.
