Lighthouse School
Another name among the best international schools in Switzerland is Lighthouse School. With the dedication to educating children, it is become a home to thousands of students from all parts of the world. It has the vision to create each child’s Individual Learning Plan (ILP) co-prepared by children, their parents, teachers, psychologists, and other involved team members.
The school also cares for parents' direction in teaching each child. It hopes that besides the education of teachers and staff at school, parents can take part in and become a productive partnership to ensure the children can achieve their highest potential. In order to be successful in school and in life, children need support from both home and school. The open door policy and access to facilitators are also included so that parents can discuss issues or needs anytime.
The small number of students in each class is a feature that lots of international schools follow. However, what's special about this school is that besides the 16 students maximum number in a class, it allows them to join and take part in other extra-curricular activities in a larger number. This not only fosters their transferable skills such as teamwork, leadership, etc but also helps them to improve their sense of responsibility, empathy, or compassion.
Moreover, at Lighthouse School, 100% of students are empowered, which means that they have a right to share their opinions, and confess their views to each other and to teachers. They can also freely choose whatever fits their interest.
