International School of Lausanne

The International School of Lausanne (ISL) is an English-language day school located in the small village of Le Mont-sur-Lausanne, just north of Lausanne, Switzerland. ISL was established as the English School of Lausanne in 1962,^[1] serving the needs of international and local families for an international primary or secondary education.^[2]

In 2005 ISL moved into a newly built campus. In September 2015 the school opened a 'South Campus' on adjoining land to facilitate an expansion of the school from approximately 630 students to 900 students. The South Campus, designed by Hannes Ehrensperger of CCHE Architecture et Design SA, doubled the total area of ISL and includes an auditorium with 400 seats. It had a price tag of 46 million francs ($48 million USD).^[1]

The school offers the complete IB program (PYP, MYP and IBDP) from Reception 3 to Year 13.

In 2014, the History Bowl team from ISL won the Junior Varsity division at the European Championships of the International History Bee and Bowl, which was held in Rome.

In 2016, the History Bowl team from ISL came second in the Varsity Division at the Swiss Championships of the International History Bee and Bowl, which was held in Basel.

Student body

As of 2015 the school had 820 students from 66 countries.^[1]
