BRIEF HISTORY OF INSTITUTION:
After first opening its doors in February 1999 as a Community Day School, Efutu Senior High Technical School was eventually incorporated into the Public Educational System by the Government of Ghana in September 2001 through the Ghana Education Service. Originally, the school had been formed as a Community Day School. According to the available records, this school is the result of the tireless efforts of the chief of Efutu, Nana Afari Twarko VI, the Queen Mother Nana Amba Eye I, and the then hardworking Assemblyman Mr. Freeman Abaidoo, who collaborated with World Vision International, the providers of the initial infrastructure for Efutu Senior High Technical. World Vision International was the provider of the initial infrastructure for Efutu Senior High Technical.
