There is only one Brillantmont in the world. We don't belong to a group or chain scattered across the globe. Our know-how is firmly rooted in Swiss excellence and values. We have been family owned and run since 1882 and are heading towards our 150th birthday, when we will welcome alumni from all over the world for special celebrations.
Our independence makes us unique, just as each and every student is unique. Developing strengths and talents to open leading university doors worldwide is what we do best.
Founded in 1882 and run by the fifth generation of the founding family we offer a warm, home from home environment to around 80-90 students, boarding and day, aged 13-18, from 30 different nationalities. Enter a tailor-made learning world, where you can be yourself.
Are you ready to become part of the BM family?
“When people ask us what makes Brillantmont so special, it’s easy to answer. Quite simply - our students are always at the centre of everything we do.
"We are proud to lead a dedicated team of staff, all committed to making the Brillantmont experience the best for every single student. Every school year is different, with its own incredible opportunities, but what remains a constant at Brillantmont is the small, close-knit community we nurture - the BM family. We respect each other’s differences, we celebrate our different mindsets and together, we support each other as we learn and grow.
Everyone is different; people have different interests, different
talents, different goals. As a school, we work together to fulfil the
potential of each and every student, shaping them to become engaged,
curious and confident in all they undertake, never forgetting that
everyone is unique. Our location helps us by providing exceptional
opportunities that you cannot find elsewhere. Our students are unique,
we are unique; there is only one Brillantmont in the world.
We hope to welcome you here soon and to writing another chapter in Brillantmont's history together with you.”

The school campus is incredible and inspiring!
We have eight buildings, most dating from the early 1900s. Behind their old-world charm, you’ll find fantastic, well-equipped, up to date classrooms and boarding areas. We work hard to maintain a warm and well maintained campus, where you'll feel at home.
At the centre of the campus lies an incredible multipurpose hall, which contains a full sized gymnasium, a music studio and a 100m2 stage.
