Hi, we were focussing our attention on the north and the area surround the Northfields school.  We are now looking at the Westcoast school.  Please can I have your advise of where to look for secure complex rentals in and around this school?  Any advise about living in this western area of the island? I work from home so don't need to be close to Port Louis for example. Thank you  Natasha

Hi Natasha, if you are looking at Westcoast school then you might want to look for accommodation in Flic en Flac (that is also where the school is located). Monthly rental for a decent family home starts from RS25,000 but it really depends on the area. Flic en Flac is a very busy and popular tourist destination. It has many 5 stars resorts and a vibrant night life. The nearest shopping mall is less than 10 minutes drive away. Public transportation is not as reliable but taxis are available. Safety wise, Flic en Flac has a police station and many safety camera all around. It also has 2 private clinics. Hope this help. Guiani

Welcome to WISS!

Founded in 2014, Westcoast International Secondary School, the only English-medium secondary school on the west coast of the island, has moved into its brand new premises in Uniciti in January 2017.



Westcoast Secondary School is part of the Uniciti Education Hub  encompassing the whole education offer of Uniciti.



In Form 1 to 3, a challenging, engaging and international minded concept focussed curriculum is studied by all pupils, The International Middle Year Curriculum (IMYC).  It is our job – of course – to engage all students in their learning but also to encourage and develop intellectual independence to a high level.  In form 4 and 5, the students work on a curriculum established for the IGCSE. These are external exams, set and marked by Cambridge, England and taken at the end of Form 5. WISS is an International Baccalaureate World School and is authorised  to implement the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme.   The programme will start in January 2020 with form 6 students.



Our classes are small with a maximum of 25 students, in order to emphasise individual attention.

As soon as you enter our building, you will notice that our students are well-rounded, friendly, open minded and true global citizens who work hard and enjoy learning.



If you get the chance, please do come and visit us.  We’ll all be delighted to see you.
