History The MOSER School was founded in 1961 by Henri Moser, with the opening of a private French school for children of foreign parents in Geneva. Since then, the innovative spirit of the family business has supported a child-centred pedagogy and developments in academic, digital and social skills. Ecole Moser Nyon offers a global pathway over 6, 10 or 14 years, from primary school (from 1P) or Secondary I (9th grade) to the Swiss maturité (with bilingual German, English or no mention) or to the double diploma: Swiss maturité + International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP). As of the 2024-2025 academic year, Ecole Moser educates 450 students. The campus is located at Allée des Moulins 16, 1274 Grens. | History Founded in 1903 by the Congregation of the Sisters of St.-Joseph, the Institut International de Lancy was originally the Collège Marie-Thérèse, a Catholic boarding school for girls. The school has since evolved into one of Switzerland's oldest private international schools and now operates as a non-profit association offering an international education with a contemporary approach to academic achievement and personal development. The institution has grown to welcome nursery through secondary students and, in 2023, celebrated its 120th anniversary. In 2025, IIL opened its fourth building, reflecting ongoing expansion. |
