International-school teaching
SC-01International-school English and EAL
Research this as a qualified school-teacher or EAL-support route. The evidence does not support treating Seychelles as a large walk-in TEFL market or assuming an introductory certificate qualifies someone for school employment.
Source-led route overview checked 2026-11-08; a recruitment page is not confirmation of a suitable open vacancy.
- Who should explore it
- Match your degree, teaching qualification and age-range experience to the exact post. International School Seychelles states that successful applicants undergo child-protection screening, including previous-employer and criminal-record checks. Its general employment page does not publish one qualification threshold for every role, so obtain the full person specification.
- Pay evidence
- No reliable salary or savings range is published in this profile. Obtain net-pay illustrations and itemised housing, utilities, medical cover, flights and relocation terms. Ask whether any accommodation is shared, where it is located and which costs remain payable by the teacher.
- Working pattern
- Confirm classroom hours, preparation, meetings, cover and paid holidays in the written offer; no national working-week estimate is established here.
- Length of placement
- Employer-specific; confirm start date, probation, renewal and notice before accepting.
- Work permission
- Foreign workers require a Gainful Occupation Permit (GOP), including for part-time and unpaid work. Employment approval must first be obtained from the employment ministry, followed by the immigration GOP application, normally completed by the prospective employer. Seychelles Immigration says an employee must not enter for the purpose of taking up employment before receiving the GOP; changes of duties or post also require the relevant procedure.
- Support and benefits
- Confirm housing, flights, relocation support and medical cover in writing. These are not assumed to be included.

Documents, healthcare and remaining checks
- Professional recognition
- Match the employer’s stated criteria to your exact qualifications. Confirm any local registration or recognition separately; a UK credential does not itself grant immigration permission.
- Documents
- Confirm the authority’s current checklist and the employer’s safeguarding requirements; do not send originals or pay a recruiter until its identity and process are verified.
- Healthcare
- Obtain written evidence of cover, exclusions, emergency arrangements and any separate cover required for dependants.
- Initial costs
- Price document authentication, permit charges, travel, accommodation deposits and an arrival reserve for the actual location.
- First payment
- Not established by this overview. Confirm the first payroll date and which costs you must fund before reimbursement.
