‘Here at Swiss Academy, we believe that every child is unique, which is why we give every student a well-rounded learning experience tailored to them and their skills. We believe that the simple ‘head, hand, heart’ model first espoused by Swiss pedagogue Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi remains pivotal to a holistic education. That’s why our goal is to help our students develop over the long term, refining their academic and sporting abilities, promoting good health and encouraging personal growth. We believe that education continues beyond the classroom. Our students participate in a wide range of sporting, cultural and extra-curricular activities that reinforce what they learn through traditional teaching. This makes Swiss Academy the perfect environment for young people to fully develop their talents.’
Kind regards,
René Furrer
Chairman of the Board of Directors

Swiss Academy - the schools
Swiss Academy works with a contextualised and modernised version of Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi's balanced educational programme, which incorporates the latest findings from brain research and research into cognitive learning.
The locations
We provide our students with a stimulating yet personal learning environment in which we nurture them individually and support them to achieve their potential.
What distinguishes the Swiss Academy
Excellent promotion
No two sports or instruments are the same. That’s why we cater to our students’ different profiles and specific needs.
Empathy
Not all talents will come to the fore at once during adolescence. If in doubt, we will decide in the best interests of the candidate and will wait to see how they progress and improve.
Joint decisions
Something can always happen or a plan can change. In no case is the graduation at our schools and thus the future of the students at risk.
Individual time management
Need more time? Exams can easily be staggered and spread across different exam sessions if required. Subjects and course units can also be repeated if necessary.
Highest digital standards
Because all teaching content is accessible digitally on our learning platform, we can we can easily absorb absences and absenteeism.
Intensive communication
We facilitate communication between the different stakeholders (sport clubs/music and dance schools; Swiss Academy; coaches/music teachers; family; teachers; students) and ensure processes run smoothly.
Holistic support
Supporting students is our top priority; it’s the only way they will be equipped to reach their goals. Our heads of department (Head of Sports and Head of Music) supervise and coordinate day-to-day school and sporting/musical activities and provide extra encouragement during the more difficult times. At Swiss Academy, having a positive attitude is paramount. We also put a premium on the effective holistic development of our students.
Interdisciplinarity
Our sports and music-focused curricula have been specially designed for Swiss Academy and give students an engaging, in-depth and interdisciplinary understanding of the two subjects. We also provide students with an enriching, practice-based programme of supporting events (‘Sports in practice’ and ‘Music in practice’).
