ABOUT THE SCHOOL


For over 70 years, Aiglon College has offered students a holistic and inspirational experience that pushes the boundaries of traditional education. John Corlette founded the school in 1949 on a distinctive ethos: the balanced development of mind, body, and spirit.


The school, nestled at 1,200 metres in the Swiss Alps, is home to over 460 students, from 7-18 years old, representing more than 60 different nationalities. From junior through to senior school, students benefit from all the advantages of an international boarding environment. They form lasting bonds with each other and with excellent educators who guide them towards academic and personal success. Aiglon considers intercultural education to be foundational elements of its school culture, values, practices and preparations for life.


Aiglon staff are enthusiastic, experienced, committed, reflective, dynamic and willing to try new ideas. They have varied and diverse interests and passions that are evident both in and out of the classroom setting. The school fosters a collaborative, open-minded, dynamic, intellectually curious and purpose-driven work culture.


Aiglon’s remarkable national and cultural diversity is an inspiring example of how, on a small scale, we are able to build a harmonious and fulfilled community.



ABOUT THE POSITION


Founded in 1949, Aiglon College is an international, not-for-profit, co-educational boarding school welcoming over 480 students ages 7-18 from around the world to live, study and grow at 1,200 metres in the French-speaking region of the Swiss Alps. Aiglon was founded by John Corlette on a distinctive holistic ethos: the balanced development of mind, body and spirit. This philosophy underpins everything we do at Aiglon, both inside and outside the classroom.


Intercultural education is at the heart of the school’s culture, its values and practices. The boarding houses embody this diversity. With 65 nationalities represented at the school, the house becomes a home in which students live and grow alongside friends whom they would never otherwise meet. The school’s boarding culture and commitment to holistic pastoral care is central to the school’s tradition and ethos. Aiglonians find a home in their house, forging global friendships that last a lifetime. Every house is supported by a dedicated residential team, with all teachers also serving as house tutors.


Aiglon’s approach to character education means breaking down the barriers between what happens in the classroom and what happens in life, the mountain, the sports pitch or on a trip. Aiglon offers a network of connected experiences, rooted in the local environment to build resilience, encourage growth and offer new opportunities for exploration. In particular, the expeditions and outdoor education programme is central to the school’s tradition. The aim of expeditions is to use the local environment as a vehicle for transforming students’ experiences into knowledge, skills, attitudes and behaviours. 


The accompanying activities programme is likewise an integral part of every student’s journey. There are a minimum of two activities per term, from a selection of 120 activities across the week. Students can immerse themselves in activities ranging from fencing, taekwondo to Model United Nations. The activities offer learning to develop skills and build experiences, allowing students to follow their passions while encouraging them to try something new.


Aiglon graduates are confident, gregarious, dynamic, entrepreneurial, and empathetic. They try new things; they ask probing questions; they dare. Aiglonians return to the school to celebrate their school and to give back. Aiglon’s not-for-profit status means Aiglonians believe in the power of a philanthropic culture, offering time, talent and treasure to support the school’s unique scholarship programme, global network and various ongoing initiatives.
