In 1995, the General Arts programme was introduced with some selected options. In 1997, more options were introduced giving the General Arts students more room in which to operate. When Mr. D.K. Sedanu Kwawu, the 8th substantive headmaster was posted to the school, he added General Agriculture as the 7th programme. Under this programme, the students select Horticulture as one of their elective subjects. Th e
pioneer students under this programme scored 100%, and since then, the results have been extremely excellent.
