Why this boarding school is the perfect fit
Personalized support and development through small class sizes.
Ecole provides a holistic learning environment that addresses the individual strengths, interests, and goals of each student. With small classes, dedicated teachers, and a flexible curriculum, every student is supported to reach their full potential.
Community and
a Sense of Home
Within the Ecole families and the close-knit community, students experience a unique mix of support, respect, and togetherness. This "home away from home" creates an environment where students feel safe and accepted while also fostering social skills.
Inspiring Nature and Outdoor Opportunities
Nestled in the Swiss Alps, Ecole offers a strong connection to nature. Outdoor activities like hiking, skiing, or expeditions are an integral part of daily life, strengthening not just the body and mind, but also fostering a sense of responsibility and teamwork.
What People Are Saying
“The Ecole’s innovative approach to education and its dedicated teachers taught me to think both critically and creatively. The Ecole also pushed me to take responsibility for my education. I left the Ecole not only with skills that allowed me to excel academically but also with a joy of learning and intense curiosity that has lasted to this day.”
— Dr. Djahane Salehabadi, University of Freiburg
“Our son hated school and for sure wanted nothing to do with college. He came home for Christmas after his first term at the Ecole knowing where he wanted to go to University, and what he wanted to study. He was able to follow his dream and has since earned an MBA."
— Jim, Father of Mats
“No other place has offered me the same lessons in living a balanced life, keeping an open mind, building relationships, and developing problem-solving skills – all attributes I credit for a happy and contented life today.”
