We are from South Africa and the school fees in the International schools in Mauritius is much higher than the schools in South Africa. So I would like to know if expat kids are allowed to attend the public/ local schools?

Hello Urasia,

Welcome on board !

Yes they are allowed to attend public/local schools. When you are here, feel free to pay some schools a visit to assess whether the education system (local) suit your needs. Here is a little guide should you wish to look at your options : Living in Mauritius Guide for Expats > Page 85

All the best
