Gymnase du Bugnon, Lausanne

What Gymnase du Bugnon, Lausanne does

Gymnase du Bugnon is a public upper-secondary educational institution (gymnasium) located in Lausanne, Switzerland, operating under the Canton of Vaud's Direction Générale de l'Enseignement Postobligatoire (DGEP). It delivers three post-compulsory education tracks: the École de maturité (academic baccalaureate route), the École de culture générale (general culture diploma), and the École de commerce (commercial diploma). The school operates across two sites within Lausanne — the Site de l'Ours at Rue du Bugnon 5 and the Site de Sévelin at Avenue de Sévelin 44 — supporting a multi-program curriculum under a single administrative umbrella.

The institution's technology footprint centers on a Moodle-based learning management system hosted at mdlgb.ch, used to support coursework across all three programs. Pedagogical and student-support services are structured through an integrated framework branded 'Réseau 360°,' which spans orientation, social, health, and pedagogical dimensions. The school also maintains partnerships with the Réseau Renouvaud inter-library network and the Passculture cultural program, extending students' access to library and cultural resources. The director is Patrick Godat, and the institution reports a workforce of 101 employees.

As a public cantonal institution, Gymnase du Bugnon does not operate on a commercial revenue model. It is government-funded through the Canton of Vaud, with students enrolled via the cantonal secondary-education allocation system rather than through tuition-paying admissions. The 'customer base' is effectively the cohort of post-compulsory students assigned to the school within the Lausanne catchment, making this an administrative allocation model rather than a competitive go-to-market function.
