About the School
Freie Katholische Schulen Zürich is a private Catholic day-school network in the city of Zürich, offering a continuous Swiss academic pathway from 4th primary class through to the Matura. Founded in 1924, FKSZ operates across several central Zurich schoolhouses, including Sumatra, Kreuzbühl, and Wiedikon, giving families a values-led alternative to both public schooling and larger international schools. Its offer includes primary, secondary, 10th school year, long gymnasium, and short gymnasium routes, with teaching rooted in Swiss curriculum expectations and a Christian-humanist educational tradition. What differentiates FKSZ is its combination of academic structure, family-like community, supervised study, central accessibility, and income-based tuition model. Families often choose it for its continuity, clear Matura preparation, values education, and grounded Zurich school culture.
Located in the beautiful Zurich, Freie Katholische Schulen Zürich has been providing exceptional education since 1926. With a student body of 800+ students from around the world, the school offers a truly international learning environment with instruction in German.
