International School Seychelles
International School Seychelles (commonly “ISS”) is an international school in Victoria, on the island of Mahé, Seychelles (SC). No public company-registry record or registration number is available for this entity. Seychelles does not publish a companies-registry filing for it, and this profile is not based on a primary registry record — the underlying source is a data-enrichment entry, not a registrar extract. The details below are drawn from the school’s own website and are self-reported unless otherwise attributed.
According to the school, ISS was founded in 1969 as “a co-educational, non-profit making organisation” and is “the longest-running private school in Seychelles”. It states that it is “owned by the International School Association, of which every parent of children in the school is automatically a member”, and that it is “recognised and licenced by the Ministry of Education”. Originally serving expatriate families, it has admitted Seychellois children since 1994, who now form the majority, with “over 30 different nationalities” represented. It operates as an all-through school for ages 3–19, following the UK National Curriculum with Cambridge IGCSE and A-Level examinations (Cambridge, Pearson and Oxford AQA boards). In 2024, its 55th year, ISS states it became “the first school in Seychelles to gain COBIS accreditation” (Council of British International Schools), following an accreditation visit on 14–17 October 2024. The school’s published materials describe a single campus at Mont Fleuri, Victoria; no second campus (for example on Praslin) is corroborated by its own sources. Wikipedia reports approximately 1,100 pupils; the school’s website does not publish a current enrolment figure.

Officers
From the school’s own governance pages, the current Executive Head of International School Seychelles is Mrs Elodie Vallantine. The school is overseen by a Board of Governors (nine members plus co-opted members); its website lists the Chairperson as Mrs Priscille Chetty, with Mr Paulian Kazibwe as Treasurer and Mrs Preethi Nair as Secretary. Wikipedia states that governors are elected every three years. These names are self-reported by the school and are not independently confirmed against any registry; nationality is not inferred. Seychelles does not publish officer or director records for private entities, so there is no official filing against which to verify current office-holders. Information current as of 7 September 2026.
