In 2012, her hosts, Richard Bindifrim and his wife Lamisi Yerrow, planned the establishment of a kindergarten and a school where the children would already learn English in their kindergarten years. Being able to speak English is important as classes at all secondary schools in Ghana are held in English.
Today, the school has thirteen classrooms. During the academic year of 2019/2020, 261 children aged between two and six years attend kindergarten and preschool and 268 elementary school and 43 student attend Junior High School. Students are taught by 14 teachers and childcare specialists.
Richard Bindifrim, Lamisi Yerrow and the people in Langbinsi have achieved great results in the past years, and a lot more is ahead of them. There are many ways to help children in Ghana/Langbinsi on their way to a prosperous future based on high-quality schooling.
