German and English reinforced
Year 9 follows a primary school programme with multilingual immersion (German and English reinforced).
Student-centred learning offers the possibility of tailoring the course of study to the student’s needs and potential. Depending on their linguistic profile, ambitions and results, students can choose from:
- 3 German levels: standard, advanced and bilingual
- 3 English levels: standard, advanced and bilingual
- 2 subjects taught in German, French or English (advanced level required in the target language): History and Biology.
The level can be changed at the end of the year based on an end-of-year review.
The specific option is also chosen progressively: students discover one option in semester 1 and another in semester 2. Students decide on their choice at the end of the year.

Year 10 at Ecole moser
German and English reinforced
In year 10, the multilingual immersion teaching from year 9 is consolidated.
Students follow their tailored course of study with the language levels studied in year 9: standard, advanced or bilingual in German, and standard, advanced or bilingual in English.
The same goes for subjects taught in German, French or English (advanced level required in the target language), with some variations:
- In German or French: History
- In English or French: Mathematics
- In German, French or English: Biology
It is possible to change the level at the end of the year depending on the student’s results and situation.
Students can take part in a cultural exchange with a German pen pal from Moser Schule (one week in Berlin and one week in Nyon). The other students can go on a week-long trip, preferably to a German-speaking region.
At the end of the year, students can sit the Trinity College GESE exam. Depending on their ambitions and results, they begin a bilingual or non-bilingual Maturité course.
