St. Joseph's Seminary Senior High School is a prestigious Catholic boys' boarding school located in Amisano, near Bibiani in the Western North Region of Ghana. Founded in 1952 by the Catholic Diocese of Goaso, it combines seminary training with regular secondary education, making it one of the few dual-purpose institutions in Ghana. The school is renowned for its strong academic performance, disciplined environment, and production of both priests and professionals who have contributed significantly to Ghanaian society.
Established in 1952 by Catholic missionaries, St. Joseph's Seminary was created to train young men for the priesthood while providing quality secondary education in what was then part of the Western Region. The school has maintained its religious character for over seven decades, weathering Ghana's educational reforms while preserving its mission of spiritual and academic formation. It became part of the newly created Western North Region when the area was carved out in 2019, continuing its legacy as a cornerstone institution in the Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai area.
The school is accessible via the main Bibiani-Goaso road, with the Amisano campus located about 5 kilometers from Bibiani town. Visitors should contact the school administration in advance, as it is a boarding institution with restricted access during term time. The best times to visit are during open days, speech and prize-giving days, or by prior appointment with the headmaster's office.
St. Joseph's Seminary is one of the few schools in Ghana where students can simultaneously pursue a regular senior high school certificate and receive formation for the Catholic priesthood, producing both secular professionals and ordained priests from the same campus.
