Empowering children to face the complex challenges of their future.At OBS, we create more than just a school – we build a vibrant community where both children and parents find their Swiss home. Our unique blend of Swiss and Anglo education creates an environment where Swiss and international families flourish together.

Your child will experience the best of both worlds: Swiss educational excellence and English-language learning. Our inquiry-based curriculum encourages critical thinking and creativity, while maintaining academic rigor. In our STEAMS program, students engage in hands-on projects that connect science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics. Regular field trips and outdoor learning take advantage of our beautiful Swiss surroundings.

Small, nurturing classes ensure personal attention, with expert teachers guiding students in both German and English. Our modern campus near Zurich features state-of-the-art science labs, a maker space for innovation, and dedicated arts facilities that inspire learning. Students benefit from our comprehensive outdoor sports program, including winter sports and swimming.

Parents become integral members of our diverse community through regular cultural events, coffee mornings, and networking opportunities. Our parent support program helps families navigate Swiss life together, from housing tips to cultural adaptation.

Our proven success speaks volumes – OBS students consistently enter prestigious universities worldwide, equipped with fluent bilingual skills and a global mindset. They graduate as confident, well-rounded individuals ready for future challenges. Join our international family, where your whole family’s transition to Switzerland becomes an enriching journey of growth and discovery.
