Looking for one of the best international boarding school in Switzerland for a child who needs personalized attention? Choose small.

At Chantemerle, simplicity is a strong educational choice.
In a world saturated with constant stimulation, we believe that children grow and thrive best in a simple, uncluttered environment.
In the classroom, simplicity becomes a strength. By prioritising clear methods, well-defined objectives and a structured framework, we create a calm learning environment in which students can refocus, learn at their own pace and give meaning to their learning.
Simplicity also shapes daily life at Chantemerle through stable routines, clear rules and hands-on activities that give purpose to effort. It helps students develop critical thinking, a sense of responsibility and self-confidence, making simplicity a powerful driver of both academic success and personal growth.

It’s well known, but often forgotten: walking in the forest is more than just physical exercise. It’s a time to breathe, observe, and reconnect — with yourself and with others.
