Grace Manieson-Annancy (Mrs.)
Director, VRA Schools









































Aboadze is near Takoradi in the Western region of Ghana. The environment is serene and the scenery equally breathtaking. The Township has everything a modern town should have. It is in these beautiful settings that our schools are located.

Our staff is our most precious asset which is irreplaceable. They are knowledgeable, focused and diligent, willing to sacrifice their time and energies in ensuring that students put in their charge excel. The House Staff in charge of the boarding houses located at Akosombo are more than surrogate parents. No student is just a face and a name. All needs are identified and catered for. Indeed, VRA Schools stand for selfless service, moral discipline, hard work and academic excellence. It is our vision to continue to nurture young people to be well-balanced, highly motivated, with enough courage and determination to face life's challenges no matter where they find themselves in the global market-place.

It is our ardent desire to make all VRA Schools places of serious study with avenues for all students to develop their creativity, aptitude for the arts, sciences, music, IT, business, sports and games, etc. We wish to harness every talent in our budding young people for their own good and for the welfare of society as a whole.

This handbook has been designed to answer most of the many important questions you may have as a new or aspiring entrant to the VRA Schools family. It is short and practical, and should be read thoroughly before pupilship / studentship is assumed.

In short our schools can be called community schools; well maintained, protected and supervised.

To Parents and Guardians

To you parents and guardians, we say, the best way to really get to know all that VRA Schools have to offer, is to stay in regular contact with the Schools. By doing so, you will be kept informed of all the meetings and functions of the Schools. Please make arrangements to attend PTA meetings, and enjoy a cordial relationship with us.

I look forward to meeting you in the new school year, and trust that your association with the Schools will be everything you hope for. Once again, you are welcome.

 


To Pupils & Students

You are warmly welcome to VRA Schools Department, comprising a group of private schools owned by the Volta River Authority, located at Akosombo and Akuse in the Eastern Region and the Western Region of Ghana, Aboadze near Takoradi. You must count it a chance of a life time to be admitted to these reputable institutions. It is our hope that you will appreciate the opportunity of being offered admission, and use all the available facilities the Schools offer to your fullest advantage.

Akosombo is in the Eastern Region of Ghana. The environment is classic and the scenery breathtaking. There are hills and valleys, a serene Lake (the Volta ) and the world famous Akosombo Dam. The town boasts of good infrastructure. The township is properly laid out, with well-paved streets which are brightly lit at night. For tourists on a pleasure trip there is the Volta Hotel, and the Volta Lake Transport Services. It is little wonder that Akosombo was nominated and voted as the most well-planned and neatest town in Ghana. It is within a conducive environment such as this, that Akosombo International School is located. The surroundings are most congenial, and the School has almost everything you will want to have at a good educational institution.

Akuse is also in the Eastern region of Ghana, thirty-one kilometers from Akosombo. It is an ancient trading town where the land is almost flat. The environment is equally good with well maintained serene environment. There are hills and valleys surrounding it. The serene Lake (the Volta ) has been dammed to form the Kpong Dam.
