International School of Zug and Luzern (ISZL) — Zug, Switzerland
School type: IB Continuum School · IB Programmes: PYP, MYP, DP · Live coaching in CET (Central Europe)
ISZL was founded in 1961 to serve the corporate expat community in Zug — Switzerland's tax-efficient hub for commodity trading, biotech, and cryptocurrency firms. The school operates across campuses in Hünenberg (Lower School), Walterswil (Middle School), and the main Upper School campus, enrolling approximately 1,300 students from 60+ countries.
ISZL offers IB Biology at HL and SL with a strong focus on data-driven practicals. The school's Upper School science wing was refurbished in 2019 with dedicated Biology labs. ISZL Biology teachers have historically included published researchers who bring current biotech and pharmaceutical-industry relevance to the IB curriculum.
ISZL graduates matriculate to top Swiss, UK, US, and European universities. The school's proximity to the Roche Innovation Center Kaiseraugst and Novartis in Basel creates opportunities for Biology-related internships and IA project mentors.
Sourced from publicly available rankings, the school's own annual diploma results communications, and the IB Organization's programme authorisations.
ISZL graduates approximately 100 IB Diploma candidates annually. Sciences are a strength area; Biology HL enrolment is consistently strong, driven by the biotech/pharmaceutical industry parent community.
ISZL reports strong placements at ETH Zurich, University of Zurich, UK Russell Group (Imperial, Edinburgh, King's), and US T20 universities. Medical-school aspirants from ISZL typically apply to Swiss, UK, and Eastern European medical programmes.
We sync with ISZL's Upper School DP calendar (mid-August start, February mocks, May exams). Our IA mentorship timeline aligns with ISZL's November DP1 topic-selection deadline. Sessions are scheduled around ISZL's Wednesday afternoon CAS block.
