Mr. Okyere said the Traditional Authorities of the town have allocated about 62 acres of land for the school’s development, stressing that the Board of Governors and Management were doing everything possible to secure the land with the necessary documents to prevent encroachment by unauthorized people.

He gave a brief history of the school’s establishment, saying it was started as a Community Day School in 2007 by the people of the area, but was absorbed by Government into the public education system in 2012.

Mr. Axolu, stressed the need for the staff to work in unity, and offer selfless and dedicated services for improved academic standards.

He also urged the students to be self-disciplined, obedient and respectful to their teachers, to enhance teaching and learning.

The school has a current student population of 350.
