Introduction:

The Inter-Community School Zurich is the oldest international school in the Greater Zurich Area. Proudly an IB World School, ICS is renowned for the community it has created over the past six decades. Located in the picturesque village of Zumikon, near a beautiful Nature Reserve, the school

is only 10 km away from the old town of Zurich.

As a School, we are committed to creating a truly supportive learning environment in which all members of the community are challenged to achieve their individual potential, encouraged to pursue their passions, and expected to fulfil their responsibilities.

We teach, motivate, and inspire our children by promoting inclusion, encouraging cooperation, and making sure everyone feels safe and accepted.
