Founded in 1947, Ecole Internationale La Garenne is a bilingual boarding school in Villars-sur-Ollon, Switzerland, educating up to 165 students aged 5 to 18 from over 30 countries. It operates across two campuses: a primary campus for younger children and the modern Le Roc campus for older students pursuing the International Baccalaureate Diploma or an American High School Diploma.

The school’s philosophy centers on personalized attention, with a remarkable 1:2 staff-to-student ratio, ensuring comprehensive academic and personal development. Its curriculum progresses from the International Primary Curriculum to the IB Middle Years Programme and finally to senior diploma programs, all delivered primarily in English with strong emphasis on French language acquisition.

Students reside in comfortable chalets with Alpine views, cared for by dedicated house parents. The school provides full-board dining with a focus on local, nutritious cuisine. Extracurricular life is enriched by the scenic setting, facilitating skiing and other mountain activities.

La Garenne holds accreditations from the International Baccalaureate Organization, the Council of International Schools, and Swiss educational associations. Its graduates are prepared for admission to prestigious universities worldwide. Additional costs beyond tuition include uniforms, insurance, excursions, and personal expenses.
