Bernard began his kindergarten education at the Swedru Salvation Army in the Central Region of Ghana where his parents were staying at the time due to work commitments. He then moved to Primary one at Nsawam where his mother, who worked at the PWD, stayed. Since his father, who served as a police officer, had been transferred to the Kumawu area, Bernard then moved to Kumawu Presby Primary School for his Primary two (2).
