Swiss School Beijing opened in August 2017 as the German-language section of the Western Academy of Beijing (WAB). The school follows the Swiss curriculum (Lehrplan 21) taught primarily in German while students also take daily Chinese lessons and access WAB's English-medium programmes. French is introduced from Grade 5. Classes run from Early Years and Kindergarten through Primary (Grades 1–5) and Middle School (Grades 6–9). The school operates on the WAB campus and students use WAB facilities such as the library and sports areas. Transportation within the WAB bus network is included in tuition. The Association Swiss School Beijing is a Swiss-registered non-profit and the school is recognised under Switzerland's framework for Swiss schools abroad. For families relocating from overseas, the school offers a German-language Swiss curriculum inside an international campus context and daily access to Chinese language teaching plus English immersion at WAB.
