Our team

The team structure

The School of Tomorrow team consists of teachers (so-called “educators”), mentors, and experts. Team members meet weekly to exchange ideas, discuss projects and plans, and ensure that each individual child receives the best possible care, support, and encouragement.

Children are not assigned to a specific teacher based on their grade or personal needs. Rather, every member of our team is available to support every child. It is the child who chooses the person best suited to the task at hand. Our team ensures that there is variety, exchange and always new impulses - and takes the initiative where necessary.

Educators.

Our educators are teachers who are recognized in Switzerland and have completed teacher training in their respective field (kindergarten, primary or secondary school). They are responsible for ensuring that every child meets the requirements of the Lehrplan21 as well as the core competencies and goals of the School of Tomorrow. Educators teach where necessary and desired, support and challenge the children, and develop individualized, personalized curricula for each child. Every child follows their own path, supported by our team and the other children.

Mentors.

Our mentors are individuals with pedagogical flair, relevant experience and a strong interest in supporting, helping and encouraging children. Mentors have a similar role to that of Educators. They also promote the development of the 12 core skills, but are not responsible for delivering the curriculum to the same extent. Instead, mentors look after the individual well-being and personal development of each child and provide support primarily with specific projects, tasks and assignements. Mentors may work broadly or specialize in specific areas.

Experts.

Our experts are individuals with specific experience, know-how or expertise in a specific subject area. Experts may contribute regularly or occasionally to everyday school life. The idea is for students to gain experience in specific disciplines directly from experts and thus providing them with realistic insights—not just theoretical knowledge. The School of Tomorrow strives to engage experts from as many different fields as possible and, wherever possible, to take into account the specific interests of the children.
