About primary schools in East Legon Hills

East Legon Hills has grown quickly from a fringe development into one of Accra's most active new-build residential belts. Most schools here are under ten years old, purpose-built with outdoor play space, and cater to the young professional families moving out from inner Accra. The trade-off is distance: expect a longer commute if you work in Airport City or Ridge. Curriculum is a mix. Montessori and EYFS dominate the early years. Newer primaries lean towards Cambridge or the Ghana Education Service syllabus.
