Primary Programme · 5 – 12 years
A warm welcome to Golden Foundation Primary School
An educational centre where we encourage and harness the zeal our young children have to explore and grow. We create the platform which allows our children to put their inquisitive minds into action through interacting, asking questions, engaging in research and project work, and doing presentations to showcase their talents and skills.
We lay much emphasis on developing strong reading and comprehension skills by prioritising phonics, spelling and vocabulary building. Our dedicated team of educators are committed to providing an enriching and supportive environment that fosters academic excellence, creativity, and character development.

Reception to Year 6
The Primary programme
The Primary programme starts from the Reception class (Kindergarten 2) through to Year 6, for learners between the ages of 5 and 12. Reception Class to Year 3 are the Lower Primary, and Year 4 to 6 are Upper Primary.
English and Mathematics form the core focus, and are taught each day of the week. Our academics blend local content with international content: reading comprehension in English features some local stories, learning about money in Mathematics includes the Ghana cedi, and learners are taught African and Ghanaian histories as part of the History and Geography curricula.
Beyond academics
Nurturing the whole child
We offer a variety of extracurricular activities, from sports and music to art and technology clubs such as robotics, encouraging students to explore their passions and develop new skills.
Physical Education is done once a week. It fosters the development of good body coordination, endurance and builds teamwork in our learners. The Upper Primary operates subject teaching, and each class has a Class teacher who is responsible for the well-being of the learners in their class.
