ABOUT DAFFODIL
A purposeful school. A growing community.
Raising Morally Upright Global Citizens since 2015.
WHO WE ARE
Education for the whole person.
Daffodil International School is a private educational institution located in Tema, Greater Accra Region, Ghana. We provide education from Early Years through Upper Secondary, with a commitment to academic achievement and the development of morally upright young people.
Our educational philosophy recognises that every child needs more than access to education. Children need guidance, encouragement, structure and opportunities to discover their abilities, develop sound judgement and learn to take responsibility for their actions.
We therefore seek to create an environment where students are challenged academically, supported in their development and guided to appreciate the importance of integrity, discipline, service and respect for others.
OUR STORY
From a first beginning
to a continuous pathway.
Daffodil International School was established in September 2015 in Tema, Ghana, with a commitment to providing quality and affordable education in a conducive learning environment.
What began as an Early Years and Primary school has grown progressively over the years. We have expanded our academic provision to include Lower Secondary education and, more recently, Upper Secondary education through the establishment of Daffodil High.
This development represents an important milestone in the school’s journey, providing families with a continuous educational pathway and enabling students to progress towards internationally recognised secondary qualifications.
Today, Daffodil International School offers education from Crèche to International A Level through its Pearson iProgress provision.
Our growth reflects a sustained commitment to educational improvement, institutional development and the preparation of young people for the opportunities and responsibilities of an increasingly interconnected world.
While our programmes and provision continue to expand, our founding purpose remains unchanged: to provide quality education and raise morally upright global citizens.
‘From little daffodils grow big thinkers ‘

Our core values guide the culture and daily life of the school.

We encourage self-control, respect for rules, consistency and personal responsibility.

Our Motto
Academic and Moral Excellence.
These values are not intended to remain words on a page. They should be reflected in how we learn, work, communicate and relate to one another.
Where Character Meets Innovation
Education at DIS goes beyond textbooks. By emphasizing discipline, integrity, and service through our character development programs, we prepare morally grounded global citizens ready to lead with dignity and make a lasting difference in the world
Our educational philosophy
We believe that a good education develops the whole person. Academic knowledge must be accompanied by character, sound values, practical skills and the ability to relate responsibly with others.
Our approach seeks to:
- Develop strong literacy, numeracy and critical-thinking skills.
- Encourage curiosity, creativity and independent learning.
- Promote discipline, integrity and respect.
- Build confidence, communication and leadership skills.
- Develop social responsibility and a spirit of service.
- Prepare students for further education and meaningful participation in society.
OUR COMMITMENT
At Daffodil International School, we understand that the work of education extends beyond the classroom and beyond the years a child spends in school.
We want our students to leave with a sound educational foundation, confidence in their abilities, respect for others and an understanding of their responsibilities.
Our commitment is to continue improving the quality of education we provide while remaining faithful to the values that define us.
We aspire to raise young people who are academically prepared, morally grounded and ready to contribute positively wherever life takes them.
