About the School
The International School of Geneva, widely known as Ecolint, is one of the most historically important private international schools in Switzerland and is often recognised as the world's first international school. Founded in 1924 by local educators and officials connected to the League of Nations and International Labour Organization, it remains closely tied to Geneva's diplomatic and humanitarian identity. Across its campuses in Geneva and nearby Vaud, Ecolint offers a broad international education with strong bilingual English-French foundations and International Baccalaureate pathways. Its differentiation lies less in exclusivity and more in educational heritage, diversity, and a mission rooted in peace, inclusion, and intercultural understanding. Families often choose Ecolint for its academic depth, global community, child-centred approach, and preparation for universities in Switzerland and worldwide.
Located in the beautiful Geneva, International School of Geneva has been providing exceptional education since 1924. With a student body of 4,500+ students from around the world, the school offers a truly international learning environment with instruction in English & French.
