From a pre-primary,primary & secondary student (1998-2013), to a primary teacher (2014-2019) to now a secondary Hifz teacher (2020-2022), IISS is home to me. I am grateful for the ocean of knowledge imparted to us,  the wealth of cherished experiences,  the lifelong friendships but most importantly for the love of our deen embedded into us, guiding us through the walks of life and shaping us into who we are today. Thank You IISS for setting our foundation to achieve the best of both worlds.InshaAllah.

Big thanks to my teachers

Special thanks to mrs mauthoor for standing at my back through thick n thin situation during my journey.

May Allah always bless this school for providing us with lots of benefits in our dunya n aakirah.🥰

 I have two daughters attending IISS secondary school.  They also went to the IISS primary school at Cassis. I am in a good position to compare the school since my daughters also attended government school before joining IISS.  

• Unlike government primary school where private tuition has been almost legalised since grade IV with the same school teacher, private tuition is not the practice at the IISS.  Therefore, the teachers give their maximum during the school hours itself.

• I must admit that we have very dedicated teachers at the IISS who leave no stone unturned to help students.  The support provided by the teachers are crucial for the success of students.

• In addition to academic studies, the school provides Islamic education of very high level.  Consequently, the students are benefitting with a complete education under one roof.

• Hifz classes are also being provided and I can proudly say that my two daughters have already memorised part of the Holy Quran and Insha Allah we are looking forward for them to complete their memorisation.

• The level of discipline prevailing in the school is very important, thereby the difference between IISS students and other students are clearly visible.  Students of IISS:

o wear respectable clothes, 

o are respectful in their behaviours; and 

o are well cultured.

• The school also provides incentives and encouragement for students to strive more in their education by awarding scholarship to students who have obtained flying colours at PSAC.  The scholarship comprises of the following, amongst others:

o Daily voucher of Rs 50 for food at the school canteen;

o Allowance for uniform on an annual basis.

These are just a few benefits amongst others although the list is inexhaustible, from a father who is proud to have opted for IISS for his kids.

My IISS days were the best days of my life. It literally feels like a second home. It gave me the best friends I could ever imagine. Also here, there is the presence of an Islamic environment, which allowed me to have good friends with Islamic values. I was surrounded by good people. Be it the management, the best, highly supportive teachers, or the other members of the staff, They were all very kind and always ready to help. Along with teaching us to be creative and smart, IISS also taught me various important life lessons such as punctuality, discipline, and manners. I also learnt to have moral values like honesty, respect, kindness, gratitude, and humility so that I can apply these qualities and become successful in life and in Ākhirah. Jazākumullāh khayr for always facilitating my educational journey.  

As a parent of 4 kids who went to IISS, I can say that I had satisfaction in all domains - academically they had highly qualified, competent teachers who did their best ;  spiritually they are all practising Muslims with high moral values; emotionally they have achieved high resilience to cope with life's challenges and socially they are able to integrate well with society. Life is unpredictable ; we have no idea what may lie ahead - the pandemic has taught us this. But with this baggage from IISS we are confident that our kids can face the future with courage and hope Insha Allah.

I attended this school nearly a decade ago and have only great things to say about my experience.

The teachers were amazing, the curriculum is second to none and each child were inculcated with akhlaaq and adab. 

I. I. S. S had a very friendly atmosphere to it. It has an environment that stimulates people to learn both Islamic and Secular stuffs. The one thing that stands out at our school was that the school has a unique “everyone-knows-everyone” feel and an admirable sisterhood touch that has never changed throughout my 7 years at school.

With regards to classmates, we are still in touch Alhamdulillah. I have come across many friends after school but none of them match the friendship of the I.I.S.S students. Friends I met there is seriously the best. 

So blessed to have attended this school Alhamdulillah. 

Great Classmates.. Great teachers.. Great School

We are two sisters, who  have been at IISS from G1 to G 13.

Alhamdulillah we both had the privilege to attend the school both at Cassis and at Vallèe des prêtes.

It's indeed a great blessing.

Neither of us can we forget the sisterhood that exist among the pupils at Cassis. 

How devoted and and hardworking our teachers were especially during our final years; for encouraging us to excel ourselves and ranked in the top 10 at national level both for SC and HSC. Despite being an Islamic school, we also had the occasions to participate in many amazing competitions.

The greatest blessing that we enjoyed is to have the opportunity to complete our hifz in this institution. A special thanks to Miss Fazum for her patience and dedication. 

We indeed owe this school a huge respect for whom we are today. 

I attended this school more than a decade ago. 

Though it was a small school, it allowed a lower student to teacher ratio, giving learners individual attention and more confidence.

Teachers were exceptional and the school had cared for importance of values and had build leaders through each of the classes and lessons.

I am now an Arabic and Islamic educator working at that same school and my kids are attending this school as well. 

I can say I am proud to be from the first batch who sat for the SC exams.
