Dayspring International Academy (DIA), has won the maiden edition of Nottingham University's bridge-building competition organized in Accra.

DIA beat eight international schools to emerge victors at the engineering competition which took place at the Ghana International School (GIS) on Saturday 11^th March 2023.

Whilst adjudging DIA as the winner, the judges commended the school for its innovative and unique design.

“the design was something that they had never seen before... the triangular truss dominating the actual belt was something that really distributed the load,” they said.

Aburi Girls Senior High School (ABUGISS) emerged as the 1st runner with Association International School (AIS) taking the 2nd runner-up position.

The Bridge Building Competition was organized by the Faculty of Engineering, University of Nottingham. The competition is aimed at inspiring the next generation of engineers.

The programme provided participating students with an overview of Civil engineering and an introduction to bridge-building concepts.

Schools included in the competition were AIS, Delhi Public School International Ghana, GIS, Hermann Gmeiner International College, International Community School Accra Campus, International Community School (ICS) Kumasi Campus, and Tema International School.

DIA runs both the Cambridge Assessment International Examination and the Pearson Edexcel modules, serving the needs of children right from Pre-school, Primary to Secondary level.

The school offers students the scope of learning and the range of skills they need to be leaders in this global world. Dayspring inspires values that enable students to exercise leadership with wisdom, humility, and discipline, by changing the status quo.
