Private schools in Switzerland at a glance

Our directory lists 217 private schools in 22 cantons, including 171 primary and secondary schools (40 take boarders), 26 private universities and business or hospitality schools, and 20 vocational schools.

97 of these 171 schools teach the Swiss curriculum: 85 to the end of compulsory schooling and 46 through to the Matura. Others prepare students for foreign qualifications: the International Baccalaureate (38 schools), A-Levels (18), the American high school diploma (16) or the French baccalauréat (14). 15 schools follow Steiner education and 10 follow Montessori.

A typical school charges CHF 10’900 to 36’400 a year without boarding and CHF 60’000 to 117’500 with boarding, room and meals included. These ranges are the middle half of the fees published by the schools in our directory (98 for day schooling, 33 for boarding): a quarter of schools charge less and a quarter more.
