Who each is right for

Ghana International School is the stronger fit for families committed to the IB curriculum and settled around Cantonments. Lincoln Community School makes more sense for those wanting American or the Airport Residential area. Both sit in the same fee tier, so the decision turns on curriculum fit and admissions rather than cost. Whichever way you lean, judge them on the all-in annual cost — advertised tuition is only 65–75% of what you actually pay — so open each school's page and run the calculator before deciding.
