Breman Asikuma Senior High School
Breman Asikuma Senior High School is a secondary educational institution in Ghana and operates as a non-denominational day and boarding school, located at Breman Asikuma in the Central Region. It was the first high school in Asikuma/Odoben/Brakwa District. The school runs courses in general science, business, general art, agricultural science, and home economics driving to the grant of a West African Senior School Certificate. History 
Breman Asikuma Secondary School opened in October 1964 on the grounds of the previous Methodist Primary School, which is now Col. Baidoo Primary. J.H.S. Mr. Robert Essuman, the chief farmer at the time, was the one who came up with the idea. Messers Isaac K. Botchwey and T. B. Okwan were also involved. The Methodist Church Ghana, the Breman Asikuma Society, and the Breman Traditional Council collaborated on the project, which was directed by Very Rev. Felix Mensah Akyea, the then Superintendent Minister, and Nana Amoakwa Buadu VI, the then Omanhene. Mr. Ernest K. A. Odoom was the first Headmaster, and the school began with six teachers: Messers E. B. Addai, Mr. Henry Aikins, Mr. Baffour, Mr. Allotey, and Mr. T. B. Okwan, as well as two non-teaching staff. At the end of the first term, there were 60 students enrolled. The school now has approximately 2500 pupils, 84permanent instructors, and 40 non-teaching personnel. The school relocated to its current location on May 5, 1973, after Opanyin Kofi Tawiah, the then Ebusuapanyin of the Turom Nsona royal line of Asikuma, gave the state land for a permanent school site. The school has produced a number of outstanding graduates who excel in a variety of fields. Academics

Admission
Breman Asikuma Senior High School is a mixed school that admits both girls and boys. Admissions process is competitive and is only open to pupils who have finished junior high school. Final year junior high school students register for senior high school through a computerized school selection and placement system (CSSPS), which was established by the Ghana Education Service in 2005, prior to completing their Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE). Unlike the previous grading system, which determined a candidate's overall academic performance in the Basic Education Certificate Examination by averaging the candidate's best six subject scores, under the computerized school selection and placement system, the raw scores obtained by a candidate in the Basic Education Certificate Examination determine the candidate's overall academic performance in the exam. Because the computerized school selection and placement system uses a deferred-acceptance algorithm, which ensures that junior high school applicants are admitted solely on the basis of academic merit, the academy's administrators use raw scores from the Basic Education Certificate Examination to admit junior high school applicants. Curriculum
The programs the school runs include general science, agricultural, business, general art, and visual arts. Final year junior high school applicants choose four elective courses as part of their computerized school selection and placement system registration. Core courses, unlike elective courses, are available to all students, regardless of their program of study. English language, core mathematics, social studies, integrated science, ICT (core), and physical education are the core courses; nevertheless, students are only assessed internally and externally in the first five aforementioned courses.
