Gymnasium
4 diplomas available
Our Maturité programme lasts three years or six semesters, including semester 2 of year 11 in Secondary I (preparatory semester) and the five semesters of the Gymnasium (S1 to S5). Students therefore follow the curriculum of the course of study chosen in year 11.
Following the 2000 Reform - the fruit of intuition and decades of pedagogical reflection, students actively participate in the development of their pre-university academic skills of research, critical thinking, analysis and collaboration, in order to allow their intellectually stimulated personalities to prosper.
In the sciences, which account for 29% of the subjects taught, we offer a wide range of specific options, as well as reinforcement as part of the Maturité + IBDP double diploma. Pupils can carry out a wide range of experiments in our laboratories and in the classroom.
New students can directly enter S1, under certain conditions.
From semester 1, students can begin an introduction to the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP). They can decide whether to opt for the double diploma (Maturité + IBDP) at the end of semester 2 (S2).
In all courses of study, high-level athletes and artists can take advantage of special arrangements for Sport/Art studies.
Special arrangement
Sports/Arts studies
In order to develop a strategy around the Swiss Maturité and adapt the duration of studies to the constraints of sports/arts practice, Ecole Moser offers tailored arrangements enabling students to successfully combine courses, training and competitions.
