Senior Secondary School
Year 10 to 12 (SS1 to SS3)

​Our students choose subjects based on their year levels. Year 10 students select 12 subjects, Year 11 students select 11 subjects, and Year 12 students select 10 subjects (with a minimum of 8 or a maximum of 9 for WASSCE/SSCE and a minimum of 6 for IGCSE).

In Year 10, we highly recommend that all students take Further Mathematics for a broader understanding and to gain an advantage in UTME.

Alongside the four compulsory crosscutting subjects (English Language, General Mathematics, Civic Education, and One Trade/Entrepreneurial Studies), students have the opportunity to select subjects aligned with their career aspirations from the following departments:

  • Science/Mathematics
  • Humanities/Art/Sociaal Science
  • Business/Commercial

Additionally, students are required to choose a compulsory Trade/Entrepreneurship/skill subject from the available options. They may choose one elective subject if they wish, outside their field of specialization, provided that the total number of examinable subjects does not exceed ten (10) for Year 12. This includes:
4 cross-cutting subjects (including 1 Trade/Entrepreneurship)
3 or 4 subjects from their chosen field of specialisation
1 elective subject
Elective subjects are chosen outside the student's specialized field of study. For example, a science student may opt for Music as an elective, while a Humanities student may choose Commerce.

The inclusion of electives ensures that students are exposed to a wide range of broad-based education without overwhelming them. The curriculum is divided into 10 areas, encompassing the syllabuses of WAEC, NECO, and IGCSE.
We prioritize capacity building, emphasizing lifelong learning and the development of critical thinking skills. Our curriculum is designed to support students intellectually, socially, and emotionally, ensuring their holistic growth and success.
