ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

JOINING THE LCIS COMMUNITY

LCIS is an academically ambitious and non-selective school. We offer places all year round to students already in Switzerland and those currently living abroad. Our Admissions team are dedicated to ensuring you have a seamless experience when joining our school.

 

Some students need English as an Additional Language (EAL) support to accelerate their learning development. LCIS is committed to tailoring their learning, and we’ll assist you in finding the level of support to benefit them most.


A place at LCIS is offered upon evaluation of your family’s application form and your child’s previous school reports and depends on availability within the year group requested.
