School History & Details

Founded in 1903 by Dominican fathers, the school in Pully began its journey as a Catholic boys' institution, rooted in the principles of faith and education. Over the years, it evolved dynamically, marking a significant milestone in 1984 when it became co-educational, opening its doors to both young boys and girls. The expansion continued with the establishment of the Nyon campus in 1985, furthering its reach and impact in the region. Originally offering education solely in French, the institution embraced change and progress, transitioning to a bilingual French-English curriculum, and enriching the learning experience for its students. In 2012, a new chapter began as the school joined the prestigious Nord Anglia Education group, ushering in a new era of opportunities and growth. This affiliation provided access to global resources and a vast network, enhancing the educational offerings and preparing students for success in an interconnected world.
