Le Rosey has its main campus in Rolle (30km from Geneva), and from January to March moves up to its Gstaad winter campus. Since its foundation in 1880, the prestige of Le Rosey has rested on its commitment to educational balance, comprising an ambitious and demanding bilingual academic programme, a wide range of sporting, artistic and community-service activities within a boarding school environment where discipline is strict and clear, and life is warm and family-oriented. It also provides entry to the AIAR network, its highly effective and powerful alumni association, offering friendly and professional contacts throughout the world.
The languages of instruction are English and French, from Primary (3rd grade) to Secondary school (up to 13th grade). Students are prepared for the International Baccalaureate (English, French or bilingual), the French Baccalaureat, SAT, TOEFL.
Le Rosey has 400 boarders aged from 8 to 19 (equally divided between boys and girls), from 52 countries, with 60% Europeans and 10% maximum per nation. The teacher-pupil ratio is 1: 5.
