    Republic of the Seychelles Ministry of Education Education Sector Medium- Term Strategic Plan 2013-2017 and Beyond A Road Map for the Further Transformation of the Education Process to Achieve Quality Lifelong Education for All and Improve National Sustainable Development November 2014 Foreword The publication of the ‘Education Sector Medium-Term Strategy 2013-2017 and Beyond’ marks a major milestone in the further development of our education sector. Education is a critical investment in our country’s future growth and development. This is emphasized through the broad-based priorities that are encompassed in this Strategy and that will inform and guide the implementation of our education and training programmes, policies, and initiatives over the coming years. This Strategy is ambitious, but ensures that the investments that we are making in our children today support our national priorities and goals. It is focused on addressing challenges, achieving results and providing our children with the knowledge and skills they need to become future productive members of our society and active participants in our economic development. In essence, the concept of quality education and training provision that are relevant to our national needs underpin this Strategy and will remain the ultimate goal of our education sector. The Medium-Term Strategy provides an important frame of reference for the various education stakeholders and all those with an interest in our education and training system, ranging from the learners and their parents, and their communities, to the education and training providers, partners and the wider interest groups. It takes into account the priorities and commitments of the Government expressed through the National Development Strategy 2015-2019 as well as a range of other approved Government policies and strategies.

  • Sixth Periodic Report Submitted by Seychelles Under Article 18 of the Convention, Due in 2017*
    CEDAW/C/SYC/6 Distr.: General 22 June 2018 Original: English English, French and Spanish only ADVANCE UNEDITED VERSION Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women Sixth periodic report submitted by Seychelles under article 18 of the Convention, due in 2017* [Date received: 14 June 2018] * The present document is being issued without formal editing. CEDAW/C/SYC/6 Background information 1. The Seychelles is an archipelago of about 115 islands, divided into two main typographical groups: the Mahé group is mostly granitic islands of 43 islands, characterised by relatively high mountains rising out of the sea with very little coastal lands, whereas the coralline group of 73 islands are mostly flat, with few geographical inland features. The land mass is 453 km2, compared to more than 1.2 km2 of Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). Mahé is the main island and lies between 4 degrees South latitude and 55 degrees east longitude. 2. Politically, the country is relatively stable with regular parliamentary and presidential elections held nearly every five years. In terms of history, Seychelles gained independence from Britain in 1976 and remains a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. In 1977, there was a coup d’état and a single party state was established in 1979. In 1992, a multiparty system took effect and a new constitution was adopted in 1993. 3. Ethnically, Seychelles is diverse due to the various ethnic origins of the population: Africa, Europe and Asia. The society is relatively harmonious in terms of race and there are intermarriages. The estimated population, according to Seychelles in Figures 2016 (National Bureau of Statistics, 2016) was 93, 400, with 46, 300 males and 47, 100 females.
