The Prince of Wales Island International School (POWIIS) was established in September 2011. In five years, POWIIS has grown tremendously and now has over 400 students. With its ideals firmly rooted in the British education system, POWIIS emphasises that academic endeavour is fundamental to all that it does and provides an environment where all children are treated as individuals.

Built to modern specifications, the POWIIS campus was designed to offer the best facilities in all areas including science, art and design, information technology, design technology and sport. The 500-seat auditorium, alongside the multi-purpose hall and drama studio, is an outstanding venue for music and the performing arts. The university-style library, SmartBoards in every teaching area and the laptop scheme support learning at all levels.
