An education that starts with you.
Freedom to question. Space to grow. Our philosophy brings academic learning together with personal development, independent thinking and strong human values.
We believe in the freedom to explore, question and analyse: from scientific knowledge to real business practices in a changing world. With personal support, students develop their understanding of society, business, human life and the mind—preparing for professional life and their own personal journey.
The thinking behind SBS
Our founder, Dr. Edward Schellhammer, is a Swiss educationalist, psychologist, philosopher and author of more than 40 titles spanning psychology, politics and economics. His work on human evolution and futurology informs the school's independent approach to education.
SBS was created to respond to the varied needs, cultural backgrounds and interests of its students. Its all-round approach combines knowledge and practical understanding with substantial personal development, respect for truth and strong human values.
