As an Methodist-Presbyterian school, Prempeh College aims to
deepen an awareness of the love of God and to encourage spiritual
growth. Whilst boys of other denominations and faiths are
welcomed, all pupils are required to attend religion classes, daily acts
of worship and certain other compulsory chapel services which are
taken by the full-time Chaplain.
However, in a recent interview, Rev. S.N. Pearson, the founding Headmaster, revealed that,
"the school was run on a Christian basis but was open to people of all faiths and none. There
was always a Sunday evening service which was taken by members of staff or visitors to the
school. Attendance was optional but all the boys chose to attend as well as some members
of the public from Kumasi."
Other services, including
confirmation and Carols, are celebrated regularly; these provide
ample opportunity for boys to further their worship. The Sunday
services are compulsory for boarders. Boys are encouraged to
participate actively in the worship. Many serve in other ways as
Chaplains prefects, Chaplain Assistants, servers or choir members.
