Background and history
Background and history
KNUST Senior High School was known as the Technology Secondary School until 2007. It offers high school education, and it is within the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Kumasi, Ghana. It was established in February 1961 by the then-vice chancellor of the University of Science and Technology, Dr. R.P. Baffour. The school being, housed in prefabricated asbestos buildings, thus started as the "baby" of the university, that is, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, in humble circumstances. From the onset, it was financed and staffed by the university. It was hoped that the school would eventually move into permanent buildings on the University campus, and become a boarding institution. From its foundation up to June 1967, the school retained the University Secondary Technical School. The Technical course was abandoned because of lack of staff and facilities. It has since been known and called Technology Secondary School. The school was originally set up to give secondary school education to the children of the university staff. The school later opened up admission to the general public. KNUST Senior High School is a Class A Institution according to the West African Examination Council and the Ghana Education Service.
