Schweizer Schule Santiago is a private, secular international school in Chile with formal ties to Switzerland. It offers a bespoke curriculum for students aged 4 to 18, from prekindergarten through the fourth year of secondary education. The Basel-Landschaft canton patronage supports the school, and it is recognized and subsidized by the Swiss government; it is the oldest Swiss-affiliated school in Latin America. The curriculum emphasizes cultural exchange, universal human values, and language instruction, with programs recognized in both Chile and Switzerland. The campus spans about 7,200 square meters of built space on a 17,600-square-meter site shared with the Swiss Club, adjacent to campus with access to a pool and tennis courts. Facilities include biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics laboratories, spaces for Arts, Music, Crafts, Cooking, Technology, and Informatics, libraries, gyms, and health and psycho-pedagogical services. TAEX extension workshops offer after-school activities in sport, arts, science, and languages, enriching student life beyond class hours.
