Celebrating Uniqueness

"Why fit in when you were born to stand out?" – Dr. Seuss

At LMS, we celebrate the uniqueness of every child. We know that no two students are alike, and that’s why we tailor an individualised learning experience for each student. Every child is on their own journey, and we’re here to help them thrive at their own pace, building on their strengths and working together to reach their next educational milestone.

A Community Where Everyone Belongs

We pride ourselves on being an inclusive, welcoming community where every child is valued. Our teachers are experts in their fields and passionate about making learning fun and engaging. From hands-on projects, to real-world problem solving, we ensure that students not only absorb knowledge but develop a genuine appreciation for the world around them.

Personalised Learning in Small Classes

With our small class sizes, each student receives the personalized attention they deserve. This allows us to create targeted goals and work closely with your child to achieve them, empowering them to grow both academically and personally.

Inspiring Growth and Confidence

We don’t just teach, we inspire at LMS – helping every child embrace who they are and become who they are meant to be.

Accredited Curriculum for a Bright Future

We are proud to be accredited by the Cantons of Lucerne and Zug to deliver Curriculum 21/Lehrplan 21, the official curriculum of Cantons Lucerne and Zug. This ensures that your child receives a high-quality education aligned with Swiss educational standards, preparing them for continued study within the extensive Swiss system. By meeting all the required curriculum elements, our students are equipped with the knowledge and skills to pursue various pathways in further education and beyond.

We moved here from Thailand and a different language-education system. My boys integrated easily, it feels like a family and we were always supported when needed.

English Exposure for Global Success

We recognize the importance of global communication. That’s why many of our non-core subjects are taught in English by native speakers, giving your child increased exposure to this widely-used language in an immersive, supportive environment.

Fostering Wellbeing and Study Skills

At LMS, we believe every student should carry a full toolbox with them at school—one that includes not just academics and social engagement, but also the skills to manage their overall wellbeing. Our students participate in a Wellbeing and Study Skills programme designed to support both their academic success and personal growth.

During these sessions, students develop effective study habits, set and refine personal goals, and reflect on their learning and focus. In addition to academic skills, we also teach the importance of maintaining a healthy mind and body throughout their high school journey. By prioritizing both mental and physical wellbeing, we ensure that our students are equipped to navigate challenges with resilience and confidence.

Inclusion of Technology in Secondary School

Each student in Secondary school is provided with an iPad, enabling them to complete lessons and access apps tailored to enhancing their learning experience.

A Little Extra Time to Find Your Path – 10th School Year(Lucerne campus)

Sometimes the future can feel a bit uncertain as students approach the end of 3rd Secondary School, and that's okay. At LMS in Lucerne, we offer a 10th School Year for those who need just a little more time and support to find their direction. Whether it's helping your child secure a Lehrstelle/Apprenticeship aligned with their strengths and interests, or focusing on boosting their averages to gain entry into Kurzzeitgymnasium/Short-term Gymanisum, our teachers are here to provide the guidance and motivation they need. Sometimes, all it takes is a little extra time—and a little more encouragement—to unlock their full potential.
