About us

Our school motto is "In Fide Scientiam", which is Latin for "To our faith, add knowledge" and sums up what we at Ivy Prep are all about. We are a Christian international school offering a well-rounded program broadly based on the new British National Curriculum and Cambridge International Examinations programs.

 

We are blessed with a team of well-trained and hard-working teachers, who are genuinely dedicated to and love their jobs!  Our principal also loves to teach, spending much of her time in the classrooms teaching various lessons at all levels whilst helping to further develop our teachers sharing teaching ideas and pedagogy.

 

As a staff body, we work hard to ensure that all children have a solid foundation in each area of learning, as foundation forms the basis for future learning. We strive to build confidence in each child regardless of age or ability.  We work to ensure that children are able to think, reason for themselves and communicate their ideas clearly.  So far, we are especially pleased all of our graduating secondary school students have gained highly competitive places at academically selective schools.

 

We allow our students to make mistakes without fear of ridicule or reprisal, to take risks in their learning and encourage them to reach for the stars!  We take time to understand each student as an individual learner and adapt our classroom instruction to suit their unique learning needs. We encourage students to develop their talents and interests and embrace technology as a vital tool in the teaching and learning process.

 

We recognise our parents as critical building blocks of each child's learning journey; partnership with our parents is crucial to learning and we emphasise working in harmony with our families sharing successes, achievements and targets at every given opportunity.

 

We welcome children of all faiths and nationalities. If you have not yet visited us, you are strongly encouraged to pass by!

 

Our school history

Ivy Preparatory School was founded in September 2014.  With a strong emphasis on academic excellence in a fun learning Christian environment, the school more than doubled its student population within its first year of opening, and has continued to experience much growth since.

 

Situated in Ashiyie-Adenta, ten minutes drive from the Adenta barrier, the school serves a diverse population of international students in addition to the local Ghanaian community.

 

Ivy Prep is a one-form entry school with a total of twelve year group classes serving children aged between 2 – 14 years.  The buildings have been beautifully furnished and provide a vibrant and welcoming environment for its students; the classrooms are bright and decorated to stimulate learning.  With a strong and committed team of staff, students are provided with a wealth of learning experiences within an exciting and stimulating environment.  Its small size brings with it a number of benefits: high quality teaching and personalised learning has led to outstanding progress; the school is well regarded for its high academic standards.
