Why Choose Us

The British School of Geneva occupies a unique place on the landscape of private education in the Geneva region. We offer a nurturing and child-centred alternative to the bigger schools and our priority is to manage enrolment to ensure personalised attention and effective communication among school staff, children and their parents.

The British School of Geneva offers a high quality education in English to 4 to 18 year-olds and we are the leading school in the city of Geneva where students can study A-Levels. Core subjects are taught in English and we do not impose bilingual education on our students, though the French language is an important and compulsory part of our syllabus.

Our highly-qualified and experienced teachers achieve excellent results in our Primary, Secondary and A-Levels sections, challenging and guiding students through the English National programme. We are proud too that our alumni have been accepted to universities in the UK, Europe (including Switzerland), North America, Asia and Australia to study their subjects of choice.

As part of the International Schools Partnership, our students benefit from being part of a wider international community that provides many educational and cultural opportunities for learning. These programmes enable our students to experience and learn about different cultures and traditions, build friendships with ISP students from other countries, and develop transferable skills such as critical thinking, teamwork and leadership.

We offer an after-school care programme for younger students as well as a range of extracurricular activities including sports, arts & crafts, music and drama. BSG students also participate in field trips, skiing outings, UN charity events and visits to museums and other cultural sites.

We are committed to providing excellent value in education. Our tuition fees compare very favourably to those of other private schools in Geneva, thereby making BSG accessible to many families who wish to invest in their children’s education and future.

We pride ourselves on being an inclusive school and embrace the individuality and cultural identity of every child. BSG hosts children and young adults from over 70 nationalities who come together as classmates and friends, and we offer additional learning support where required.
