Overview

About Agogo State College

Agogo State College began in 1963 as a private school with 28 students. Its founders deliberately borrowed the "college" identity from the model of established schools such as Prempeh College, but the school was built through distinctly local effort.

Agogo residents contributed land, money and even proceeds connected to cocoa production to support expansion before the school was absorbed into the public system in 1970.

Students at Agogo State can choose Business, General Arts, General Science, Home Economics and Visual Arts, with the programme pages showing what each choice covers.
