Optimised for Apple® and Android® mobile devices, students can even use the app to inform the school and their parents about their travel plans.

The best way to experience our unique Swiss boarding school environment is to plan a personal visit. We appreciate that our families have busy schedules and consequently, we try to to allocate the most convenient times for them where ever possible.

Rosenberg has taken holistic and individual learning to the next level. There has been much debate between educators about how students should be encouraged to take an active stake in their own education and at the same time being carefully guided towards discovering and reaching their individual goals for the future. At our Swiss boarding school, we meet the high ambitions of our students and families through our individual development planning.

In this process, parents are part of team, sharing their vision for the education of their children with our specialists. We carefully map and monitor student progress, providing professional advice and support where necessary. Guidance counsellors and academic mentors provide regular feedback on progress while providing students with an ongoing point of contact for questions and support. The result is pure educational artisanship.

Our artisanal guidance ensures that each student receives the education that is most suited for their strengths and ambitions. Planning ahead, monitoring progress and providing expertise or support are the cornerstones of our individual development plans. Our experience shows that IDP® encourages students to reflect on their goals and achievement while growing self-awareness and a sense of ownership for their education.

A cold or a seasonal virus are the most commonly occurring sicknesses and we all catch them, at least once a year. Students who feel unwell inform their house tutor and the school’s health coordinator who liaises with our dedicated school doctor. We will arrange for students to see the doctor in most cases, even with minor symptoms, because we value a professional opinion. After all, we are the Artisans of Education, not of Medical Care. For more serious illnesses we rely on a network of specialists and with all major regional hospitals just a few minute’s drive away, our students receive the best health care they can get.

Applicants who pass the first reading stage may be invited for a personal interview and to sit the Rosenberg entry exams. Following the review of results taking into consideration the entire candidate profile, successful applicants will receive a direct offer or a conditional offer. Families then have a few days to formally accept the offer and guarantee the space by settling the first invoice.

Among other information, we will require the following:
1 - Report cards for the previous three years of school.
2 - A personal statement (any media incl. video, collage, digital welcome).
3 - A scan of the applicant's passport.
4 - Any other information / documents which may support the application.
5 - Application fee (CHF 1'000.00 per candidate, non-refundable)

Generally speaking, the sooner the better. Depending on their home country’s academic schedule, applications reach us throughout the year, with the high season starting usually in October through to June. Spaces are allocated on a first-come basis and based on merit. Are you late in the game? Don’t be shy to ask, maybe we have a recent vacancy.

Yes.
