Founded in 1882, Brillantmont International School is the oldest family owned and run boarding school in Switzerland. The school welcomes around 80 students, boarding and day, aged 13-18, from over 30 different nationalities into a warm, family environment.

Brillantmont is a special place to live and learn, where they treat everyone as an individual, with unique talents and interests, inspiring students to achieve their full potential. Owned and run by the same family since 1882, Brillantmont creates a home away from home, in which students can grow and develop in and beyond the classroom.

Brillantmont is a small school, with a close-knit community, a family, where they respect each other’s differences, celebrate different mindsets and together, support each other to learn and grow. Its unique location enjoys students to enjoy the best of both world – the opportunities of a small city, yet minutes from forests, lakes and mountains.
