The Ridge Church School is an independent and parochial co-educational preparatory day school in Accra, Ghana.[2][3] Situated between the Gamel Abdul Nasser Avenue and Guinea Bissau Road and opposite the Efua Sutherland Children's Park, it was founded by the Accra Ridge Church in 1957, the year of Ghana's independence from the United Kingdom.[2][3][4][5] The Ridge Church School is located on the premises of the church.[2][3] It was the first wholly private basic school to be established in modern Ghana.[2][3] The Accra Ridge Church was the first international solely English-speaking Protestant church in Ghana.[2][3] The school is inter-denominational Christian, holding ties to the Anglican, Methodist and Presbyterian churches, that assign chaplains to both the church and school.[2][3] The school runs a ten–year programme from kindergarten to lower primary through upper primary to junior high and culminating in the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) administered by the West African Examinations Council (WAEC). The school largely follows the prescribed curriculum and syllabus of the Ghana Education Service (GES).[2][3]
