Introduction

Eden School is a private bilingual international school in Geneva, Switzerland, with two campuses near the city center. It delivers a bilingual French-English curriculum with additional German language exposure, serving children from ages 3 to 12, with pathways that align to both the French education system and the Geneva cantonal track. The Eden track begins with nursery at age 3 and primary through age 11, while the cantonal track extends to secondary schooling. The primary program is bilingual in French and English and integrates the Romand PER to allow continuation in either pathway. Students learn through plurilingual immersion, with daily focus on social-emotional development and project-based learning across mathematics, sciences, reading and writing, languages, arts and physical education. The school emphasizes family-like, personalized education in a modern, adaptable environment, supported by two Geneva campuses: the Frank-Thomas campus opened in 2025 for ages 3–6, and the Veyrier campus, featuring a farm and stables, plus flexible, technology-enabled classrooms, a library and a reading corner.

Academics

Eden School - Veyrier Campus teaches French Curriculum, Swiss Curriculum for students aged 3 to 12.

Curriculum

Eden School offers a bilingual French-English curriculum in Geneva, with additional German language exposure. The Eden track follows the French system, with nursery beginning at age 3 and primary ending at age 11, and students completing their schooling at age 18; the Geneva cantonal track begins nursery at age 4, ends primary at age 12, and ends secondary at age 19. The primary program is bilingual French/English and integrates the Romand PER to allow continuing studies in either pathway. In kindergarten, the program emphasizes emotional safety, language and cognitive development, and includes daily music and movement as part of the bilingual experience. The primary curriculum covers mathematics, sciences, reading, writing, history/geography, languages, arts and physical education, with project-based learning used at key stages and a strong focus on social-emotional learning. Subjects are taught through a plurilingual immersion, with French and English instruction and German introduced in some years.

Wellbeing

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

Mindfulness develops the emotional, cognitive, and social development of the child. It helps the child understand what they feel, recognize their internal states, and respond in a more measured way. By fostering a calm relationship with emotions and thoughts, the child builds inner security that supports engagement, trust, and readiness to learn. At Eden, mindfulness is fully integrated into an educational vision that considers the child in all dimensions. The practices are complemented by positive discipline, used daily in classroom life to support the development of social‑emotional skills.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

Teaching is differentiated to meet each child's needs, promoting both academic and personal progress through differentiated tools tailored to individual requirements. From early on, each subject is taught by a dedicated specialist, ensuring passionate delivery and deep mastery of content. This variety of approaches exposes children to different ways of thinking and learning, enriching their educational experience. Assigning a subject-by-subject teacher helps avoid over‑reliance on a single authority and supports a holistic, balanced education that encourages autonomy and exploration of interests. The team has been trained to become experts in positive discipline, providing a firm yet benevolent framework in which children take responsibility for their actions.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

The school offers multilingual instruction in French, English, and German. The Veyrier campus provides a natural immersion in French and English. The Frank‑Thomas campus notes bilingual French/English instruction and integrates the Romand curriculum (PER). English language activities are available, including English Club open to all (whether or not the child attends Eden). These language offerings support students in developing bilingual proficiency.

Mental Wellbeing

Mindfulness supports the child's emotional, cognitive, and social development, helping them understand what they feel and recognize internal states to respond appropriately. In kindergarten, mindfulness activities use tools like Kimochis® to help children name and acknowledge emotions; in primary, Brain Ball® and the Eline Snel method support attention and emotional regulation. These practices are supported by positive discipline in daily classroom life, reinforcing emotional and relational skills. Eden's approach emphasizes emotional accompaniment as part of its holistic educational vision.
