Two worlds, one school
Established in May 2008 under the aegis of the Indian Association of Benin — a CBSE-affiliated school welcoming students of all nationalities in the heart of Cotonou.

Our Story
A school built on community
Indian International School Benin was established in May 2008 under the aegis of the Indian Association of Benin, to serve students of all nationalities. Affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education, New Delhi (Affiliation No. 7830001, School Code 90016), the school follows the CBSE curriculum from Playgroup through Grade 10.
In Akpakpa, Cotonou, families from India, Benin and around the world learn side by side. With our upgrade to Senior Secondary (Grades 11–12) underway, IISBenin is growing with the community it serves.
