Structure

The school has one academic head who oversees the delivery of instruction to Pre-school, Kindergarten, Primary and the Junior High School (JHS). He monitors all teaching performances and student progress.

The philosophy of Bestina Education Centre is to provide quality education and inculcate the fear of the Lord. This foundation is why we expect the highest standard of educational instruction from our staff as well as a high standard for
morals and ethics.

The school currently offers BECE curriculum approved by the Ghana Education Service and National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA). We provide the necessary facilities at all levels to ensure that the learning goal of each grade is consistently met through research supported education practices and the NaCCA.
