Our Philosophy

At Beau Soleil, we believe it’s what you do that counts. This philosophy holds true in all that we do as staff and for our students. We are a community that believes in the power of action, engagement, and participation, both inside and outside of the classroom.

Our unique holistic education is built around four core values: Respect, Responsibility, Ambition, and Determination, which provide a framework for community life for our international student body. Our students come from over sixty different countries, showcasing diverse academic backgrounds and a wide range of future aspirations.

With curricular programmes in both English and French, students graduate with an IB or High School Diploma. Within this framework, small class sizes allow for a flexible programme, and staff are encouraged and supported to bring new ideas to all that they do.

Our Community

Our location in the heart of Villars-sur-Ollon offers an enviable lifestyle with access to skiing in the winter months and a multitude of outdoor and sporting activities throughout the year. Montreux, Lausanne, and Geneva are all within easy reach for cultural adventures and inspiration.

The Beau Soleil campus is an inspiring place to work, equipped with facilities that are second to none. Our ongoing campus development and maintenance programme ensures that our students and staff thrive in a proud environment.
