About the School
Atelierschule Zürich is a private upper-secondary school in Zürich, offering an academically recognised but creatively distinctive route after the 9th school year. Run as a shared Mittelschule for several Rudolf Steiner schools, it is open to students beyond the Steiner system and leads either to the Swiss Matura or IMS qualifications. Its strongest differentiator is its atelier-based model: alongside core academic subjects, students choose focus areas such as visual arts, music, biology and chemistry, or philosophy, pedagogy and psychology, with project work, internships, theatre, and independent research built into the programme. Families often choose Atelierschule Zürich for its balance of recognised university preparation, artistic depth, personal initiative, and a more holistic alternative to conventional gymnasium education.
Located in the beautiful Zurich, Atelierschule Zürich has been providing exceptional education since 1990. With a student body of 150+ students from around the world, the school offers a truly international learning environment with instruction in German.
