ABOUT

ABOUTPRIMARY

Students aged 6 to 10 follow a personalised bilingual or English school curriculum based on themes of knowledge. Our staff teach traditional subject areas in innovative ways through themes like “Global Warming” or “Inter-Nation Media Centre”, as this method jump-starts their students’ ability to apply their knowledge to the real world. At its core, this programme enables students to build up permanent, transferable, lifelong learning skills rather than accumulate a collection of facts, letters and numbers.

ABOUTLOWER SECONDARY

Students aged 11 to 15 may choose to follow either the IB Middle Years Programme (IBMYP) and/or the Swiss Option.

The IB MYP programme is student-centred and caters for all abilities, learning styles, cultural backgrounds and academic histories. It focuses on both personal and academic development and provides students with an internationally recognised qualification, as well as a solid foundation with which to study the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP).

The Swiss Option is designed for students who wish to keep their options open and decide later whether to opt for an IB Diploma or finish their schooling in a Swiss state school. They will study most subjects alongside MYP students, but will follow extended maths, French and German programmes as well as choose between a maths or physics option.

AboutUPPER SECONDARY

Students aged 16-18 may choose to study towards an English, French or bilingual IB Diploma (IBDP), IB Career-Related Diploma (IBCP) and/or a US High School Diploma (USHD).

The IB Diploma Programme is a well-established, multilingual course that serves learners extremely well for the future, and is recognised by major Swiss and international universities. Students are guided through an intense and rigorous study programme, which encourages them to step outside their comfort zone and achieve, as well as grow in ways that will serve them well during their university studies.

The IB Career-Related Programme prepares students for success in their work life whilst also giving them an excellent foundation for further studies through Diploma Programme (IBDP) courses, thus reducing the academic-practical divide. Haut-Lac students may choose to follow the IBCP with one of three specialisations, namely Sustainable Managament, Art & Design and International Sport Management.

The US High School Diploma (USHD) programme is run in parallel to the IBDP programme, but culminates in a different final assessment. It is aimed at US and Canada-bound students.
