A welcome from the Headmaster of
Malvern College Switzerland
Malvern College Switzerland
Thank you for your interest in Malvern College Switzerland, the youngest member of the Malvern College family of schools. Our location in Leysin, amongst the majesty of the mountains, is a wonderful place to live and to learn.
Together we are creating a new school, blending the time-honoured traditions of a premium British boarding education with the cosmopolitan buzz of a forward-thinking international school. Our educational approach centres on developing the eleven Malvern Qualities in our pupils: resilience, self-awareness, open-mindedness, kindness, collaboration, risk-taking, curiosity, ambition, independence, integrity and humility.
Our website and prospectus will, I hope, give you a good feel for what it is we're offering. But there's no substitute for coming to look around, or talking to me or another member of the team in person. We understand that choosing the right school for your child is a big decision. As experienced educators we can support and advise to ensure that your child flourishes whatever the future may hold for them.

FEEDBACK
"The school feels very homely, all the other students are nice, and the teachers are accommodating. There is always someone that you can find to talk to. It's never been difficult to adjust here and if people are homesick, they feel very taken care of - like family even if they are far away from home. I must say that the accommodations is also beautiful as is the food. "
MCS is a very homely school.

"I feel that there is a great environment for learning here because all teachers put in a great effort. They have lots of patience for all students and take time to adapt to all levels. The sizes of the classes help with this. Teachers are very creative in how they design different activities in class for us to better understand the subject."
The teachers are so creative.
"As a competitive skier I think MSC is ideal. It's really nice because it's in the Alps and very close to the ski slopes. As I'm in-and-out all the time competing, I can generally get on the slopes in around 30 mins or less which is much better than a city campus. The school itself very good, and all the lessons are great. When I'm not here I miss it quite a bit, and I like the that lessons are long so when I am here, I can enjoy them. I can also catch up in the evening."
Perfect for any level of skier.

Bonding with your peers through student-led clubs.
"One great aspect of being a new and small school is that more students can pursue their own interests. As such the student council are proposing to encourage their peers to form their own clubs and societies based on their interests. It is the perfect opportunity to meet like minded students and form strong bonds on common interests. Such examples have already started to thrive within MCS such as the Japanese club, choir and the eco committee. The eco committee is chaired by myself and Miss Cumberlidge where we aim to make the school more environmentally friendly, we have a variety of leadership roles that need to be fulfilled and encourage students to take an interest in helping and learning about the environment."
