Verbier International School (VIS) is a private international day and boarding school in Verbier, the ski resort in the Swiss canton of Valais, set at around 1,500 metres within the 4 Vallées ski area. It was founded in 2011 by a group of local families and has grown while keeping a close-knit community and a strong emphasis on outdoor education. VIS welcomes students aged 3 to 18, a community of roughly 200 pupils from more than 50 nationalities, and teaches the International Baccalaureate Primary Years and Middle Years Programmes followed by the IB Diploma or a High School Diploma. In 2025 the school joined Dukes Education, an international family of schools, under shared ownership with a Swiss family, which gives students access to events and competitions across the group while the school keeps its alpine identity. Its campus sits next to the Verbier Sports Centre, and the school keeps phones out of the school day and provides personalised pastoral care.

Attention to diversity
Information about the curricular adaptation of the Verbier International School
Verbier International School presents itself as a boutique school whose small classes let teachers know each learner and adapt lessons, set the right level of challenge and step in with extra help when needed. A dedicated Learning Support Team works with students, class teachers and families so that individual learning needs are identified and met. Depending on the child, support can take the form of one-to-one or small-group sessions, targeted help with literacy and numeracy, coaching in study skills and organisation, help with executive functioning, English language development and a personalised learning plan with clear goals. Progress is shared regularly with parents, strategies are applied consistently across subjects, and the school will work alongside educational psychologists, therapists and other outside professionals where this is appropriate.
