Academia Bilingual School Basel opened in 2010 and has deliberately stayed small so that teachers can maintain close contact with every family. Recognised by the canton of Basel-Stadt, it has a transfer agreement that lets pupils move into the state system at any time. Its kindergarten and primary school are housed in a new building at Hochstrasse 16, about 150 metres from Basel SBB station, and it belongs to the Academia group.

Our paths crossed with Academia Bilingual School Basel when we learned that the school was moving from Riehen to the city center. I had heard many great things about the school while researching bilingual education in Basel, but Riehen was just not practical for our daily logistics. After a disappointing experience at another bilingual school, we enrolled our daughter at ABSB, and my only regret is not starting there earlier. The school is exceptionally well organized. Mr. Brauer is incredibly hands-on, knows every child by name, and is everything...

Oh very good school where my kids were moved from ISB and my kids were protected by Accademia from kesb… I am blocked by ISB to write a review on them in Google -that school is bad so you don’t see all the honest reviews I guess, ISB reported my autistic and adhd kid to kesb for being abused by parents , and my daughter was overwhelmed by that so it did influence our family life. I am glad kesb took ours and Accademia’s side, Accademia was interviewed by social services . We are not in Basel anymore but it was totally worth it that we went to Accade...

We joined Academia School from it very early stages and both our boys stayed for 7 years. Over those years It sometimes was difficult, but we always had a good feeling about the approach and commitment the school has as well as a philosophy of creating ownership with the children. Last year we moved away from Switzerland and into a new school system in the netherlands. It was a test to what our boys had actually learned at Academia. Especially a change of language along with it created some concern with us as parents. We were pleased to discover t...
