Surval Montreux is a unique international girls’ boarding school in Switzerland which provides an exceptional all-round education for girls aged 12-19. The school offers a High School programme for Grades 8-12, alongside a unique Swiss Gap programme for 17-19 year olds, Winter Camp experiences and a Summer Camp June to August. Surval programmes are exclusively for girls. All aspects of a Surval education focus on empowering girls to challenge themselves, own their voice and lead their journey.
Surval belongs to the international education group Bellevue Education consisting of 21 schools, with headquarters in London, UK.
The curriculum is based on the American High School Program, taught alongside Advanced Placements or IGCSEs, AS and A2 levels. We also offer an innovative Swiss Gap year programme for post-secondary school study which includes an intensive French language programme.
This is an exciting time in the School’s history having recently celebrated our 60th anniversary, connecting with the school’s traditions and heritage whilst seeking to continue to provide a forward-thinking and creative education in order to prepare young women for tomorrow’s world.
This is an outstanding opportunity for an energetic, imaginative, and inspiring teacher. If you love teaching, thrive on initiative and ideas, and would relish the enrichment opportunities of an international boarding school, please contact us.
Classes are small at Surval, typically around 10 students or smaller. As a small school, subject practitioners must be self-sufficient in their subject specialism, able to build their own resources, and to administer the curriculum and assessments efficiently. Flexibility is valued and expected.
