THE PRE-APPRENTICESHIP YEAR
OVERVIEW
The pre-apprenticeship programme lasts for one year and is intended for pupils aged 15 or 16 who want to take some time to reflect on the right course in line with their professional or academic aspirations.
The programme is recognised by the Groupement Suisse des Ecoles de Commerce (GEC).

To pass the pre-apprenticeship programme, you will need to obtain an average pass mark.
STRUCTURE
The pre-apprenticeship year starts in August and lasts for one school year (36 weeks divided into 4 terms).
TEACHING METHODS
Our students are regularly monitored. The pre-apprenticeship lessons focus on practical skills, aiming to prepare students for hands-on application of what they have learned.
Students work on theory and exercises in the classroom and complete additional work at home. The students’ homework is marked, and they are required to revise and sit progress tests as part of their assessment. Students produce regular written work, forcing them to study and keep up to date with the programme. They also sit exams at the end of each term to assess what they have learned
