Legacy Girls' College

Legacy Girls' College

Legacy Girls’ College is unique because it is currently the only private girls school in Ghana. But that is not all that makes Legacy unique. It overlooks the serene and striking hilly environs, carperted in green woodland which offers a perfect ambiance of sobriety, conducive for teaching and learning.

The decision as to which school you select for your daughters will make a big difference to their value system and how they turn out as adults. We did a lot of research and found out what parents’ expectations and preferences of schools are, what girls consider high quality education, all of which and more are found in Legacy.

Essie and I have been privileged to be involved in academia and in industry and have found some nuggets on how a girl child can excel in what is still very much a man’s world and we are in a frenzy to pass it on. Some of which are: Knowing yourself worth, accepting that it is possible to have the best of all worlds - the world of work as well as the balance with family life; learning to discover your purpose, developing your soft skills, critical thinking skills, becoming more solution oriented, focusing less on yourself and more on making the world a better place.
