UK school principals to visit Ghana (Accra) for the UK Boarding School Exhibition.

Are you in search of a boarding school in the United Kingdom? Look no further because the British Boarding School Exhibition is here again.

A delegation of principals and senior leaders will be visiting Accra in October to meet with parents, students, government ministers and business leaders at a UK Boarding School Exhibition - following a recent surge of interest in the benefits of a British boarding education among Ghanaian families.

The main exhibition will be at The Golden Tulip Hotel on October 15 , (9:00am -18:00 GMT)organised by experienced educationalists Mark Brooks Education and Anderson Education, with the full support of the UK’s Department for International Trade and British High Commission in Accra.

“The United Kingdom and Ghana enjoy shared values, a thriving trading relationship and a belief in the transformation that an outstanding, all-round education with strong pastoral care can make to futures of our young people,” said one of the organisers, Mark Brooks.

Many successful academics, artists, commercial leaders, lawyers, medics, musicians, politicians, scientists and sports people from across Ghana owe their resilience, self-confidence and success to the firm foundations they developed at a British boarding school.
“Choosing a school is one of the most important, emotional and financially significant decisions parents will make for their children. Time spent in early exploration, research and discussion with individual schools and specialist consultants is not only wise, it will ensure that their sons and daughters will achieve their full potential, in a happy, safe and secure environment,” said Sara Sparling, a Director at Anderson Education.

The 15 leading boarding schools visiting Accra include a range of different types of establishment from girls’ only to co-educational, those that focus mainly on academics to others which have an emphasis on character development, schools which adhere to the traditional British curriculum to others which follow a more internationally based approach.
The free exhibition will be open from 9am to 6pm on Tuesday 15th of October at The Golden Tulip Hotel in Accra.

CK Akonnor wins dismissal case against Kotoko, Ghanaian giants ordered to pay compensation

Asante Kotoko are expected to CK Akonnor a hefty compensation after the former coach won his case for wrongful dismissal against the club on Monday.
