Geneva English School (GES) is an International Primary and Secondary school with campuses in Genthod and Versoix, both in the Canton of Geneva, Switzerland.[1][2]
Founded in 1961, the school offers an English curriculum for students aged 3–18. GES families include international civil servants, ex-pat employees of multinational corporations, diplomats and local families who opt for an anglophone basis of education. In 2015 the school opened a new secondary campus, which has been growing organically year on year.
The school has around 350 students in the 2023–2024 academic year.
Curriculum
[edit]GES follows the English system. Pupils take English GCSEs and then A Levels. Exam results are typically superior to UK national averages with 2022–23 results in GCSEs being double the UK average[3] and A-level results typically enabling a high number of school graduates to progress to Oxbridge or Ivy-league institutions.
