English is the common tongue at Aiglon, and the school maintains a multilingual culture with 65 nationalities represented and 23 languages spoken. Students are encouraged to thrive in their home language or learn another language. French is taught as part of the curriculum, alongside other World Languages offered by the school. The programme includes dynamic language programmes to develop multilingual competence.
Our English as an Additional Language (EAL) programme provides targeted language support and immersion in an English-speaking community. Students access the curriculum with specialist teaching, supplemented by classroom assistance. Support is provided one-on-one and in the classroom.
Nestled in the Alpine village of Villars, Aiglon College is an international boarding school for ages 7–18. Founded in 1949 by John Corlette, it is a not-for-profit institution sustaining the balanced development of mind, body and spirit, with meditation and mountain expeditions at its core. English is the language of instruction, with targeted EAL support, and graduates receive an accredited High School Diploma alongside IB Diploma Programme. The curriculum unfolds in three phases: Discovery Years (5–9) blend academic study with expeditions, arts and reflection; Exploration Years (10–11) offer Cambridge IGCSE and a bespoke Pre-IB pathway; Inspiration Years (12–13) deliver the IB Diploma. On campus, teaching and boarding spaces sit with renovated chalets, recording studio, Centre for Enquiry with a maker space, and AIR Lab. Sports and expeditions shape life, with outdoor pitches, a Sports Centre, skiing and weekend trips. Partnerships include Manchester City Football School and Lindsey Vonn skiing education.
