Location

At present the school is located at the City of God Church Centre in Ashaley Botwe,Accra.

Facilities being developed include a library, computer laboratory and a science laboratory.

We also have a school kitchen and can offer a cooked meal to students who wish to join the school’s Lunch Scheme.

Over the next few years we hope to move to a new site in the locality with purpose-built facilities.

Curriculum

We have Pre-School, Nursery, Primary and Secondary classes in the school.

In the Primary and Lower Secondary classes we follow syllabi based on Key Stages One to Three of the British National Curriculum.

Students in the Upper Secondary classes will follow a curriculum leading to Cambridge IGCSE examinations (in Form Five) and for A levels (in the Upper Sixth Form).

Admissions procedure

• The first step is to fill in initial enquiry form giving your child’s name, age, present school and class and stating for which class you are seeking admission

• You will be given a time and date for an entry assessment for your child

• • If your child performs to a satisfactory standard on the assessment – and provided that there is a space in the relevant class – you will be invited to attend a parents’ interview

• • If your child performs to a satisfactory standard on the assessment but there is no space in the relevant class then no place can be offered.  However, you may put your child’s name on a waiting list for that class.  If a place becomes available at a later date, the school will contact you to arrange a parents’ interview.

• • If your child does not perform to a satisfactory standard on the assessment, then you will be advised that no place can be offered.

• Following the parents’ interview, if you still wish to enrol your child in the school, then you will be asked to
  • sign an Acceptance Form
  • pay the Admission Fee
  • pay one term’s Tuition Fee

Please note that this procedure must be completed in full before a place can be guaranteed for your child.  Accordingly, please do not withdraw your child from his/her present school before this.
