About SPMS
St. Peter's Mission Schools have integrated quality and upgraded educational reforms to meet the current challenges in education. We value each learner as an active member of a community that extends beyond the classroom into a more diverse society.
To nurture disciplined, hard-working learners who understand the global interdependence of economic, environmental and social systems, and who become life-long learners able to make sound life and career choices.
Adapted from the Director's welcome — official wording to be confirmed.
To be the major brand name as far as academic excellence and total training are concerned.
“There is always something new happening in St. Peter's Mission Schools throughout the year. I invite prospective parents to join the noble family.”
Founded near Madina Social Welfare with an enrolment of 16 pupils.

The school reached Junior High School level.
St. Peter's Senior High School established with its first 42 students.
Academics
SPMS fuses the Ghana Education Service curriculum with the Cambridge IGCSE pathway.
The national curriculum runs from Nursery to Senior High School, preparing learners for the BECE and WASSCE conducted by WAEC.
SHS core subjects
The International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) was developed for learners aged 14 to 16. SPMS has introduced it alongside the GES curriculum. It is currently taught at Primary level as the Pre-IGCSE, which prepares pupils for the IGCSE planned for the secondary department.
