International School Altdorf is a private international boarding and day school for students aged 13 to 18, set on a hillside campus with mountain views. The school offers a rigorous mix of Cambridge IGCSE (14–16) and the IB Middle Years Programme for junior years, along with the IB Diploma Programme (16–19) and the IB Career-related Programme supported by BVIS and UNWTO Academy Switzerland with OTHM accreditation. Language development is a clear focus, with IGCSE languages (English, German, French, Chinese) and targeted English support for non-native speakers. The campus features athletics facilities (soccer, basketball, tennis; summer beach volleyball and outdoor pool) and a fitness club, plus outdoor activities such as hiking, rowing, mountain biking and skiing. A distinctive feature is the on-campus animal shelter run by students, linking campus life with service.
