Curriculum and university pathways
Tema International School runs the IB curriculum. The International Baccalaureate Diploma is the most globally portable qualification on offer in Accra. It is well regarded by universities in the US, Canada, UK and Europe, and its breadth requirement — six subjects plus theory of knowledge and an extended essay — is designed to signal an all-round applicant. It is also the most demanding to teach, which is part of what keeps IB schools at the top of the fee ladder.
