Sport-Études: study alongside competitive sport
Sport-Études is a route in which intensive Swiss Matura preparation is combined with competitive sport. We build the studies around training and competition rather than the other way round, so that a student does not have to choose between the diploma and a sporting career.
Dimitri Clerc — from Léman Maturité to NJCAA Division I
Dimitri Clerc, a Léman Maturité graduate, combined intensive Swiss Matura preparation with basketball. He now plays in NJCAA Division I in the United States and is ranked among the country's top 100 junior college players.
His path is exactly what Sport-Études exists for: serious sport did not stop him earning the Swiss Matura, and the Swiss Matura did not force him to give up sport.
How we support student athletes
Individual timetable
The teaching timetable is built around the training plan and the competition calendar.
Working with coaches
We work together with the student's coaches so that the overall workload stays balanced.
Academic support
Tutors help students catch up after trips away and keep up the pace of examination preparation.
