If you're moving into Tema or expecting a January start, begin visits 3–4 months out.
The essentials to check in person: staff-to-child ratio (especially under-3s), how children are being spoken to when nobody is watching, outdoor and shaded play space, meal setup, toilet and nap facilities, safeguarding at pick-up, and how transparently the school answers about fees and hours. Almost all listed schools welcome visits. how they respond is itself a strong signal.
