Freies Gymnasium Zürich offers a comprehensive monolingual course of study lasting six years and leading directly to the Matura. This approach enables early subject selection and intensive specialisation. The lessons cover a wide range of subject areas and are conducive to gaining in-depth knowledge.
In addition to the university entrance qualification, the aim is to impart fundamental knowledge with a view to lifelong learning, as well as to promote intelligence, willpower, sensitivity in ethical and musical matters, and physical abilities.
The Gymnasium attaches particular importance to the development of intellectual openness, independent judgement and personal maturity – qualities that are necessary for demanding university studies and responsible tasks in society.
