The International School of Lausanne (ISL) is a luxury English-language private school located in the 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.[citation needed] 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 (US$48 million).[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 $40,000(USD) per year.
