The Cambridge assessment is designed “to be fair, valid, reliable and practicable.” The assessment focuses on what is of value: “deep subject knowledge, conceptual understanding, and higher-level thinking skills—and the flexible assessment structure maximises time for teaching and learning”.

Currently, over a million students in over 10,000 Cambridge schools in 160 countries benefit from qualifications internationally recognised by universities and employers—and North Hills International School is one of the few accredited Cambridge schools in Ghana.

Established in September 2017, North Hills International School runs a dual curriculum, integrating the globally recognized Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) system alongside the Ghana Education Service (GES) curriculum. This unique blend ensures that students receive a holistic education, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to excel both locally and internationally.

The school’s latest achievement comes on the heels of several accolades, including being named the Best, Innovative, Well-Coordinated, and Organised Private School of the Year at the Heroes of Distinctions Awards in 2021. This award, organized by the West Africa International Press Ltd, recognized the school’s exceptional contributions to education in Ghana.
