Swiss Curriculum
Children must attend elementary school in Switzerland, no matter if it is public or private. Education starts at the age of seven and continues for eight to nine years. During the first six years, students have one teacher who teaches all subject areas. During the last two to three years, the subjects are divided among two different teachers. There are a few other teachers for specialized subjects such as gym and cooking. After elementary school, students go on to secondary school, where they can go to a gymnasium, in order to pursue a career in academics. This prepares them ultimately for free admission to a university. Or students the vocational route, where they must complete three to four years of school before entering into vocational studies.
Success in Integration
There are several models of education in Switzerland. One is the separated model, where students are separated into different schools based on their performance ability. The cooperative model has core classes that have different performance expectations. Students are assigned to specific classes based on their abilities. A third model is the integrated model. In this particular model, all students, regardless of performance level, are in the same class.
Separating students solely on ability may cause some students to not want to try as hard. However, keeping all students, regardless of ability, in the same classroom can cause students who might perform below standards to struggle. We offer a way for struggling students to improve their academic abilities with online tutoring. Our eLearning courses in both math and English allow students access to lessons similar to their current ones. They can also access older lessons for further review. With thirty days of free online classes, we can show any student that academic success is possible.
