Okuapeman School, popularly known as OKUAS, is a category A coeducational second-cycle institution in Akropong in the Eastern Region of Ghana.
The school was established in 1957 by barrister Charles Opoku Acheampong,[1] who had been a pupil in the chambers of Edward Akufo-Addo.[2]
Due to establishment in a traditional and royal area, past students earn the name "Adehye", which means "royal family".
The school was started by Barrister Opoku Acheampong and was handed to the government of Ghana after his demise.
The school runs both a day and boarding system, with the majority of the students in the boarding house. There are eight houses in all, with four for girls and four for boys. They are Opoku Acheampong House - Blue, Akuffo House - Green, Kwadade House - Yellow, and Addo Dankwa House - Red.
The school's colors are brown, signifying mother earth and nature, and white, depicting purity.
The school practices an inclusive system which enables visually impaired students to have access to education. They can participate in activities and share facilities with the other students. The school strongly stands by its principle of not segregating students on any grounds. The school's disciplinary actions against students who condemn others with special needs are swift.
The school has about 2,500 students, including special needs students.[3] Special needs students are enrolled in the general arts class and are offered courses on languages (Twi, Ga, Ewe and French), History, Government, Literature and CRS. They are excluded from Mathematics and Science due to their inability to join in the practical session.
