| Teaching approach of the school |
The school offers three internationally recognised diplomas- the French-English bilingual Swiss Maturity, the French Baccalaureate, as well as the International Baccalaureate taught in English. Emphasis is placed on language learning. The students learn English and are introduced to German at a very young age, before they begin a French-English bilingual programme, and have the choice to take advanced German. As for non-francophone students, they learn French through the French as a Foreign Language (FLE) programme. Collège Champittet students have exclusive access to a music and dance programme developed in partnership with the Juilliard School in New York. The school also works with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the USA. Once a year several students have the opportunity to go to this university with a teacher to take part in a week of science.
