Biography

 Ms. Beverly Isaac

Ms. Beverly is an experienced educator and educational leader whose career has been centered on working with young people and supporting their development and wellbeing. She currently serves as Chief Executive Officer of the National Council for Children (NCC), bringing to the role a strong background in education and many years of experience working directly with young people and their families.

Her career in education began in 2009 as a secondary school teacher. She later joined the School of Advanced Level Studies (SALS) as a lecturer before taking on the role of Deputy Principal. Throughout her career, she has worked closely with students, parents, educators and other professionals, supporting young people not only in their education but also through the different challenges they face as they grow.

She holds a master’s degree in education, specializing in Leadership, as well as qualifications in secondary education, organizational leadership, executive leadership and staff wellbeing.

At the heart of her work is the belief that children and young people should not only be protected and supported, but also empowered with the knowledge, confidence and skills they need to cope with the world around them. She believes in listening to children, understanding their realities and giving them the support and tools they need to face challenges, make positive choices and grow into confident and responsible individuals.

For her, the impact does not stop with the child. When children are empowered, families are strengthened. Stronger families contribute to stronger communities, and stronger communities help build a stronger nation.

As CEO, her vision is to build on the strong foundation established by NCC while taking the organization to its next level. She believes that in an ever-changing world, organizations that serve children must also be willing to grow and change. This means listening to children and families, understanding the challenges they face today and being willing to reevaluate programmes, services and approaches where necessary. Her aim is for NCC to remain relevant, accessible and responsive to the real needs of children and families in Seychelles.

She also believes strongly in collaboration. Protecting and empowering children cannot be the responsibility of NCC alone. It requires families, schools, communities, government, professionals and other partners working together, with the wellbeing of the child at the centre.

Beyond her professional life, Ms Beverly has a passion for music and has been singing and performing for many years. She also enjoys spending time with her family, something she values deeply.

As she takes on this new chapter, she brings a leadership approach centered on people, responsibility and action, with a commitment to ensuring that NCC continues to grow with the children and communities it serves.

For her, empowering a child is not only an investment in that child’s future, it is an investment in the future of Seychelles.
