The International School of Lausanne (ISL) is an English-language day school located in the small village of Le Mont-sur-Lausanne, just north of Lausanne, Switzerland. ISL was established as the English School of Lausanne in 1962,^[1] serving the needs of international and local families for an international primary or secondary education.^[2]

In 2005 ISL moved from their campuses in Pully into a newly built campus. In September 2015 the school opened a 'South Campus' on adjoining land to facilitate an expansion of the school from approximately 630 students to 900 students. The South Campus, designed by Hannes Ehrensperger of CCHE Architecture et Design SA, doubled the total area of ISL and includes an auditorium with 400 seats. It had a price tag of 46 million francs ($48 million USD).^[1]

The school offers the complete IB program (PYP, MYP and IBDP) from Reception 3 to Year 13. Tuition fees for the different programmes vary but the average tuition fee is around $30,000(USD) per year.

Accreditation

ISL's (upper) secondary education (Middle and High School) is not approved as a Mittelschule/Collège/Liceo by the Swiss Federal State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI).^[3]

Student body

As of 2015 the school had 820 students from 66 countries.^[1]

IB Programme

The International School of Lausanne has followed the IB system since September 2000. Since then 17 graduating classes have gone through the IB with an average 99% pass rate and a mean score of 36 points. ^[4]
