Clarity in a CHF 100K+ Decision
Swiss School Guide helps international families research and compare Swiss boarding schools with unprecedented price transparency and verified institutional data.
Why We Built This
Swiss boarding schools charge CHF 60,000 to CHF 175,000 per year. A single enrolment decision represents a CHF 300,000+ lifetime commitment. Yet most families make this decision based on glossy brochures and incomplete fee information.
We built Swiss School Guide because families deserve better. Our True Annual Cost Calculator surfaces the hidden fees — uniforms, excursions, exam registrations, weekend programmes — that schools routinely exclude from headline tuition figures.
Every school in our directory is profiled with 50+ structured data points, enabling genuine apples-to-apples comparison across curricula, languages, boarding options, and costs.
Our Principles
True Transparency
We publish real fee data — including the hidden costs most directories ignore. Families deserve to know the true annual cost before they apply.
Verified Data
Schools can claim and verify their listings. Every data point is sourced from official publications, and we flag when information is unverified.
Data-Driven Decisions
We structure 50+ data points per school so families can compare objectively — from curricula and languages to boarding fees and extracurriculars.
Family-First
Our platform is built for parents, not schools. We don't accept payment to rank schools higher or hide unflattering data.
37 Schools. Every Canton. One Directory.
From Zurich to Lausanne, Geneva to St. Gallen — we cover the full spectrum of Swiss boarding education, including IB, A-Levels, Swiss Matura, French Baccalaureate, and bilingual programmes.
