Top Principals To Visit Ghana For UK Boarding School Exhibition
A delegation of top principals and senior leaders is expected to visit Ghana next month to meet with parents, students, ministers and business executives at a UK Boarding School Exhibition.
The exhibition, will take place at Kempinski Hotel in Accra on Wednesday, October 5, 2022 from 2pm to 4pm and 6pm to 8pm, to among others discuss the opportunities offered by British boarding education.
A release issued by the organizers of the event, Mark Brooks Education, and copied The Anchor, said, “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.”
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.
“I am really looking forward to coming to Ghana in October. I am excited to meet the people and fellow heads on this amazing tour, I really just can’t wait,” said Christine Cunniffe, Principal of LVS Ascot.
The events are fully supported by the British Deputy High Commissioner in Ghana, and in association with the UK’s Department for International Trade (DIT).
The top boarding schools visiting Ghana include a range of different types of establishments from all-girls 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.

I can’t wait to meet more positive, smart and talented students in Ghana and tell them about opportunities and university pathways ACS Cobham can offer,” concludes Anastasia Cotton, Vice Dean of Admissions, ACS International Schools.
