It’s faculty members are therefore expected to be passionate about participating in the full life of the school – from curricular to travel programs.

The school offers 90 exceptional students from Canada, the United States and abroad a one-year, pre-university program that uniquely combines academics in the centre of Europe, French language exposure, residency in a local Swiss home, and an enriching travel program.

The academic program follows the guidelines of the Ontario Ministry of Education Grade 12 University Preparation Courses and the College Board’s Advanced Placement (AP) Program. Students’ academic endeavors are supported and elevated by internationally-focused activities ranging from Model United Nations, the New European Speech Debate and Acting Association, Habitat for Humanity builds in Eastern Europe and Internship opportunities at the Canadian Embassy in Berne and at the United Nations High Commission for Refugees.
