Within the Rosenberg International Curriculum, students can work towards several national qualifications — Swiss Matura, German Abitur, IB, IGCSE and A-Levels, and the US High School Diploma with AP. A very low student-to-teacher ratio supports a personalised, innovation-focused education.
A small community of around 280 students from some 60 nationalities, with around 210 boarders housed in art-nouveau villas. Education runs continuously from the early years, with notable emphasis on languages, design and innovation, and sport.
Rosenberg places strong emphasis on creativity and future skills — design, robotics, coding and entrepreneurship — alongside equestrian, golf, tennis and skiing. Its 'Talents & Artisans' approach and bespoke individual development give each student a highly personalised set of pursuits.
Highly selective, with an individualised admissions process and limited places; application is made online.
