Learning
We welcome and connect. We nurture and inspire. We challenge and prepare.
As the only school in the Berne region and one of a few in Switzerland to offer the entire IB continuum, our curriculum gives students a coherence of programs and a sustainable learning experience whether your child continues to study at our school or elsewhere. The ISBerne Mission is at the heart of everything we do, and as it states: We welcome and connect. We nurture and inspire. We challenge and prepare.
Learning at ISBerne is supported by a number of unique programmes and learning experiences, such as:
- Ski and Skate Fridays during the Winter season
- Annual Outdoor Educational Camps
- A Personal Development Programme with service learning activities
- An inclusive Athletics programme
- An robust Arts programme
- A broad After School Activities programme
- A Continuity of Learning Plan that supports at-home learning during school closures
- Highly experienced English as an additional language support team
As you explore our school online, we hope it draws you into the 'ISBerne experience'. We look forward to welcoming you and your family to our community!
