Principal’s Message

At The Roman Ridge School, we are passionate about every aspect of school life and we want our children to love being here.  We are an extraordinary school that is nurturing and dynamic.  It is a place where children flourish and have the chance to grow up in a supportive environment with high expectations that shape each pupil to stand tall on our six pillars: Responsibility, Integrity, Morality, Leadership, Discipline, and Excellence.

Pastoral Care is the cornerstone of our ethos and our dedicated and highly qualified staff are the heartbeat of our school. Their commitment to support each child to develop and excel academically, socially, emotionally and spiritually, is second to none.  Our students perform exceptionally well academically and are guided to achieve their best by developing their self-confidence, independence and curiosity. Every aspect of school life complements the other; from academic work to their extensive involvement in clubs, sports, activities, various events and community service projects. This myriad of invaluable experiences is an integral component of a rounded educational programme, which in turn produces independent and creative young people who go on to become highly successful in their further studies and positively impact the world around them.

We successfully execute the high standards and expectations of the UK independent school system. The Roman Ridge School is an accredited UK Independent Prep School and the only school in Ghana inspected by the UK Independent Schools Inspectorate. We have strong ties with many of the UK’s top independent schools and hold membership with some of the UK’s most prestigious associations, including the UK Independent Association of Prep Schools (IAPS), UK Society of Heads, SATIPS and the Independent Schools Examination Board (ISEB). TRRS is a Cambridge International School and is a fully accredited Independent Cambridge Exam Centre. We administer Cambridge IGCSE & AS/A level Examinations and are directly inspected by Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) officials from the UK.

At every juncture, we welcome and actively support parental involvement in your child’s learning and believe that a complete educational programme can only be achieved when there is partnership between home and school. Our PTA is vibrant and works in close collaboration with the school to achieve our shared aims and goals, for the ultimate benefit of our children. We maintain an open-door policy to ensure our parents have full access to their child’s teachers and school authorities, to ensure frequent communication to support the development of each child.

We hope that you enjoy visiting our website and finding out more about The Roman Ridge School! We would be delighted to have you for a visit to get to know the pupils, staff, and school first-hand.  We hope to see you soon, and are confident that you will agree that The Roman Ridge School is truly a unique and special place.

Principal.
