Haut-Lac Adds Hospitality Track with Les Roches

 

Every year, families from all over the world put their trust in Swiss School Consulting to offer their children the best possible opportunity for a successful education in Switzerland.

Dubai, Jakarta, Madrid, Athens, Paris, these are just a few examples of where our families come from, and they all appreciate the personalised relationship we offer them and the privileged contacts we have with a large network of Swiss private schools.

Nothing would be possible without close collaboration with our partners, the Swiss private schools, and we begin a non-exhaustive series of presentations of some of the schools with which Swiss School Consulting has the privilege of collaborating.
