Achimota Student Experience
Student exchanges provide rare and unique opportunities for everyone involved, by providing a time and space to learn about the lived experiences of people from around the world and appreciate our differences and similarities. Exchanges also offer a unique opportunity to make lifelong friends, immerse ourselves in a different culture, and learn about another country's customs, values, and history. It is an invaluable opportunity for students to broaden their horizons and gain cross-cultural sensitivity and the communication skills needed to become global citizens.
PCDS is excited to host our first Upper School Achimota Student Experience (ASE). In this program, we will host fourteen students and four of their teachers from The Achimota School, located in Accra, Ghana.
Our visitors are eager to meet the PCDS family, and we are just as keen for you to meet them. If you are interested in hosting a student from Ghana for 9 days, please contact amy.blakeney@pcds.org.
