About the School
Sportschule Dürnten is a state-approved private school in Dürnten, in the Zurich Oberland, designed for young athletes and highly active students who need a more flexible academic structure than a conventional school can offer. The school serves pupils from 6th grade through lower secondary level, with a reduced weekly timetable of around 25 lessons so students can balance core academics with training, competitions, recovery, and personal development. Its model is especially relevant for performance athletes, artistically active children, and sport-oriented pupils who benefit from structure without giving up ambition. Tennis is a particular strength, supported by an on-site tennis hall, while the school also offers polysport training. Families often choose Sportschule Dürnten for its small classes, flexible scheduling, personal supervision, and practical bridge between school, sport, and future academic or vocational pathways.
Located in the beautiful Dürnten, Zurich, Sportschule Dürnten has been providing exceptional education since 2005. With a student body of 60+ students from around the world, the school offers a truly international learning environment with instruction in German.
