A delegation of students and teachers from Rossington All Saints College in Doncaster, UK, on Friday paid a courtesy call on Tema Mantse, Nii Adjei Krakru II.
They are in the country for an exchange programme, sponsored by the British Council, to learn Ghanaian cultural practices and how schools in Ghana inculcate cultural elements in the training of students.
Nii Kraku called on stakeholders in and outside Ghana to invest in the education of children in the country, especially those in deprived areas, saying education was the key to development.
He said the Tema Traditional Council had established an educational endowment fund and was also liaising with the Tema Metropolitan Education Directorate to initiate measures to improve education in the area.
Nii Kraku commended the College for supporting the Akodzo School with computers and accessories and appealed to the delegation to assist computer students to enable them to further their education in the UK.
Mr David Russel, Leader of the group, said U.K and Ghana had lot of things in common, socially and politically.
He said the visit was to strengthen the ties between Ghanaian schools and the College, under the “Dreams and Teams” plan, a component of the exchange programme that allowed students of partner schools to be trained in leadership skills.
The Tema Traditional Council installed Mr Russel as Tema Manhean development chief, with the stool name, Nii Adjetey Agnokeba.
