GIS annually practices a system of democracy by electing prefects for the school. The electoral committee, made up of the Vice-Principal (Mr Frank Amponsah-Mendah) and three other teachers vet the nominated candidates chosen by their peers. Successful aspirants are then given a couple of days to campaign and then present their manifestos to the entire student body on the third day.
At the end of the voting process, the electoral body meticulously goes through the counting process after which elected prefects are announced for the academic year.
An annual ceremony then follows at a special assembly to honour the past prefects and swear in the newly elected. It is always a joy to see students take on leadership roles honing their skills and leading by example.
We would like to say a whopping congratulations to the newly elected 2021-2022 Prefects and Students Representative Council (SRC) of Ghana International School. After a period of nominations, intense interviews and campaigns, you have emerged winners! We are wishing you all well as you embark on this new journey of leadership. All the very best to you! Ayekoo.
