Providing excellent, culturally appropriate primary education for children in northern Ghana.
 

"In my mother tongue, Mampruli, pam-be Ghana is a statement of pride. It means ‘there is a lot (abundance)  in Ghana.’ My interest in mother tongue education goes back to my own primary school experience of instruction in English, a language none of us spoke or understood. We were punished if we spoke our native language in school. School was very difficult and most of my mates dropped out. I would have dropped out too if not for my father’s determination to keep me in school. Out of about 100 children with whom I started school, only three of us completed secondary school. My life path has given me opportunities to pursue my own education and careers in rural development and early childhood education. I have since completed Montessori certification in both primary and lower elementary education, and a Masters of Education in early childhood education. This reignited my passion for mother-tongue education and my dream to adapt and apply the Montessori principles in Ghana, starting with my own people.”
