Imagining the future since 1905

Founded in 1905 by the Congregation of the Missionaries of Saint Francis de Sales, Institut Florimont has continually evolved while remaining true to its founding values of excellence and solidarity.

Over the past 120 years, we have adapted both our curriculum and our facilities to provide an education of the highest standard, aligned with the changing world. From the construction of the Florimont stadium in 1963 to the opening of our nursery school in 2013, from the introduction of the International Baccalaureate programme in 2014 to the launch of our cultural season in 2022, from the creation of an Art/Sport stream the same year to the establishment of an Innovation Hub in 2024, Institut Florimont has embraced a continuous path of development in service of an unwavering mission.

About Institut Florimont

Since 1905, we have been guided by a single mission: to shape independent, demanding, and passionate minds.

As a private school in Geneva, we draw strength from our experience and the diversity of our students. We provide a high-quality education, both French-speaking and bilingual from nursery level, combining the best of the Swiss, French, and international educational systems to prepare our students for three diplomas: the Swiss Maturité, the French Baccalauréat, and the International Baccalaureate.

Grounded in a pedagogy that balances rigour with care, we provide each student with a structured and comprehensive environment. As a city-centre school with strong local roots, we are committed to developing our students’ human skills through solidarity projects and active community engagement.

By encouraging our students to give their best, we help them unlock their potential and discover what truly inspires them.
