Our approach to teaching

Built on over a century of experience, Institut Florimont offers the best of the Swiss, French and international education systems to all students.

With its unique blend of tradition and modernity, the Institut provides educational excellence in STEAM subjects (science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics) and is dedicated to developing personal skills through collective community activities. Florimont has formed many cultural and sporting partnerships with local organisations, placing great importance on developing artistic and physical skills.

Florimont offers French/English bilingual teaching from Maternelle (kindergarten), with students choosing between different programmes when they enter Secondaire 2 (Diplomas): French Baccalauréat, International Baccalaureate and Swiss Maturité.

Florimont consistently produces outstanding examination pass rates, opening the doors to the top schools and universities.

We offer a bilingual French-English track from Maternelle (Kindergarten) through to Diploma level to suit all student needs.

“There is no set path, no set track. Each of us must constantly reinvent our life.” (J-N Dumont, Que signifie réussir?).

Florimont works closely with a number of organisations such as Foyer Handicap, Aigues Vertes and various social healthcare facilities in Geneva to involve our students in local volunteering and provide ongoing support to people or institutions.

The spirit of volunteering is the motivation behind a range of sporting and cultural events and community initiatives, including the Escalade Run and work preserving and cleaning the lakeshores.
