Sefwi-Wiawso Senior High

SEWASS was established in 1961 as a Ghana Education Trust school during the expansion of secondary education under Ghana's first post-independence government.

A report on the school's history and a major dormitory project records the 1961 establishment and the motto Mate Masie, translated as "I hear and I keep."

The school later became the alma mater of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, giving the school a particularly strong connection to one of Ghana's best-known traditional leaders.

SEWASS's story combines national education expansion with a local identity that has remained important enough for old students to keep returning and investing in the school.

The current register lists Agricultural Science, Business, Home Economics, Visual Arts, General Arts and General Science at Sefwi-Wiawso Senior High.

Six programmes give you several programme choices, but the subjects and practical requirements differ significantly between them.

The Agricultural Science guide shows what students study in that option at SEWASS.

SEWASS has received significant investment in both learning and residential facilities.

The Sefwi Wiawso Municipal Assembly documented a new ICT laboratory equipped through the national school-connectivity programme. More recently, the Otumfuo Osei Tutu II Foundation completed a 600-bed girls' dormitory with washrooms, an infirmary and housemistress accommodation.

Students at SEWASS take part in leadership, sport, cultural activity and academic competitions as part of school life.

The school's relationship with the wider Sefwi Wiawso community is also visible. Municipal events, including debate and quiz activities around national celebrations, have used the campus as a gathering point for students across the area.
