Léman International Academy in Geneva offered a bilingual Christian program for children aged 3 to 13. The curriculum merged the Swiss PER for French-language subjects with the North American Common Core for English-language subjects. French subjects followed PER with French textbooks; English subjects followed the Common Core with British textbooks; German began at age 7 as required by Swiss law. Computer science was taught to all students and used as a learning tool by the end of primary. Older students with classroom computers learn to master search engines, word processing, and document management. History and geography were adapted for an international audience. A weekly Bible time introduced biblical knowledge and values, integrating a biblical worldview with outdoor learning and cross-disciplinary exploration. Opened in September 2010 with TeachBeyond authorization, the campus sits in a park-like setting near downtown Geneva, with Bus A stopping at the Rippaz school stop. The school has high-performance IT equipment, a grassy football pitch, winter gym space in Vandoeuvres, and is now permanently closed.
