Awutu Winton SHS is positioned in such a way that it serves numerous scattered communities. The land on which the school is built is for the inhabitants of Awutu Bereku and Gomoa Akoti. Apart from these two communities, Awutu Winton SHS serves five major communities including Kasoa which is about 10 kilometres away.
Awutu-Winton SHS has come at the right time to save a lot of junior high school graduates who, due to financial difficulties, have spent two or more years at home after completing their free education. There are others who did go on to senior high school level education but for one or two financial difficulties they had to end their education half way through the programme. These were some of the problems Awutu Winton SHS, (the only fee free secondary education institution in the entire country), has brought to these communities. So indeed Winton means a lot to the people in these communities and Ghana as a whole. Awutu Winton SHS has a great future. Established in 2010, it is about 6 years old. The school so far can account for 374 Graduates of which a little over 20 percent are pursuing various courses in the numerous tertiary institutions all over the country.Something we are very proud of.
The Future of AWSHS
Awutu Winton SHS is growing each day, and looking into the future, my excitement is that the school will overcome all of it's challenges.The activities at the school, in particular music and cultural events, help create some sort of patriotism and love for Winton, the students Alma Mater. I am optimistic about the fact that, more classrooms will be built, and vocational oriented programmes will be introduced. I hope that facilities in areas such as the science laboratory, and also the Home Economics department will be properly furnished. In the future I believe we will see enhancement of extracurricular activities, particularly in the area of games and software.
