Spear’s Review

Known as ‘the school of kings’, Le Rosey’s students are members of the global elite. Alumni include Prince Rainier III of Monaco, the Prince and Princess of Bhutan and the offspring of actress Elizabeth Taylor.

One of the world’s most expensive schools, Le Rosey has two campuses for different seasons. Facilities in both are, as would be expected, extremely high quality. The summer site near Lake Geneva is geared towards summer sports such as tennis and swimming, while the winter months are spent in Gstaad, skiing in the afternoons.

Upon graduating, Le Rosey’s students are given access to the contact details of Le Rosey’s illustrious alumni, a roll call which reads like a guest list for the most exclusive ambassadorial reception ever held.
