SIS Swiss International School Rotkreuz-Zug

Curriculum and International Standards

SIS Rotkreuz-Zug bases its teaching on the curriculum of the respective canton, supplementing it with elements of international educational practice and pedagogical standards developed by SIS.

Bilingual Education from Kindergarten to Secondary School

The SIS Swiss International School Rotkreuz-Zug offers bilingual education from kindergarten to secondary school, with classes held in both German and English. Bilingualism is not a prerequisite for admission.

Bilingual Kindergarten

Our bilingual kindergarten, for children aged three to six, is a day school providing a well-supervised, safe, and stimulating learning environment. SIS has developed a unique curriculum for this age group, preparing children for a smooth transition into the bilingual SIS Primary School.

Bilingual Primary School

Teaching at our bilingual Primary School follows the curriculum of the canton of Zug and incorporates international educational practices and SIS’s pedagogical standards. Attending our Primary School prepares children for the transition into our Secondary School, and students can transfer from the public school system at any time.

Bilingual Secondary School

After primary school, SIS Rotkreuz-Zug offers a three-year bilingual secondary school programme, an alternative to the college path. Our Secondary School prepares students for demanding apprenticeships or continuing their education at college.

Facilities

Our kindergarten occupies a carefully refurbished historic building with an attached playground. A spacious multi-purpose hall, which also serves as a cafeteria and for school events, is located next door.

The state-of-the-art schoolhouse opened in 2014, and houses primary and secondary schools. Various specialist rooms, a basketball court, and a playground promote student-centred teaching. A spacious, well-equipped playground between the kindergarten and primary school house provides ample space for children to move unencumbered.

Day School and Support Services

SIS Swiss International School Rotkreuz-Zug operates as a day school, with optional before and after school care, running from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. The school offers a range of services catering to students’ various needs, ensuring all age groups feel happy and comfortable.

Hot lunches are available for all SIS Rotkreuz-Zug students in our cafeteria, while before and after-school care caters to children in kindergarten and primary school.

Extracurricular Activities and Holiday Club

A variety of extracurricular activities and clubs allow students of all ages to develop complementary skills or enjoy a change from the regular academic program. SIS Rotkreuz-Zug also offers a holiday club during autumn, winter, and summer breaks, providing a supervised, varied program with trips for one week.

Location and Accessibility

Our modern school building is ideally located in the Suurstoffi district, a car-free, eco-friendly residential and business area with excellent road and public transport links.
