Welcome to Dodi International School

For over half a decade, Dodi International School has remained committed to creating a nurturing, high-achieving academic environment where children thrive.

FOUNDED IN 2017 BY THE GYAU DODI FAMILY, D.I.S. IS LOCATED IN THE HEART OF TEMA COMMUNITY 5, SURROUNDED BY PEACEFUL GREENERY THAT INSPIRES FOCUS, CREATIVITY, AND JOYFUL LEARNING. OUR SERENE CAMPUS OFFERS A SAFE AND STIMULATING SPACE FOR MEANINGFUL DISCOVERY, EXPLORATION, AND GROWTH.

We follow the Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) curriculum from Early Years through to Secondary. Our academic year runs on a trimester system from September to June. Students also study French and Mandarin as part of the core language offering, with Arabic available soon as an after-school enrichment course.

At Dodi, learning goes beyond the classroom. We foster a hands-on, inquiry-led approach that promotes critical thinking, real-world connection, and personal growth. Students are encouraged to explore their interests, develop global competencies, and build the confidence to lead with purpose.

Our strength lies in our people *teachers, students, and families* who make Dodi more than just a school. We are a community united by a shared mission: to support every child’s unique journey and prepare them for success in school and life beyond.

Our History

In 2008, Kofi and Juliana Gyau Dodi stood on a quiet piece of land with a bold dream, to create a school where every child would be seen, nurtured, and empowered to thrive. From that vision, Dodi International School was born, rooted in the belief that education has the power to transform lives and shape a better future.

Brick by brick, year after year, they poured their hearts and resources into turning that vision into reality. Dodi wasn’t just about building classrooms, it was about building a place where every child would be known, challenged, and supported to grow into a confident, curious, and compassionate learner.

On September 26th, 2017, Dodi International School opened its doors to 25 students and a small team of passionate educators. The rooms were freshly painted, the dream was big, and the journey had officially begun.

As more families joined our community, Dodi continued to grow. In 2021, we expanded with a three-classroom annex, soon followed by a six-classroom block adjoining our main campus. In 2024, we launched a dedicated Upper Secondary annex in Tema Community 10 to support our growing IGCSE cohort. In September 2025, we’re excited to launch the first phase of our purpose-built Secondary campus is designed to inspire, innovate, and empower our older learners for the world ahead.

Today, over 550 students learn, play, and grow with us from Early Years through Lower Secondary. And as we continue to expand, our hearts stay rooted in the values that started it all: courage, compassion, curiosity, creativity, and community.

The future is bright. And we invite you to be a part of it.

Meet our Head,
Kali Gyau Dodi.

At Dodi International School, we understand that choosing the right school is one of the biggest decisions a parent can make. You're not just looking for academics—you're looking for a safe, joyful place where your child feels seen, supported, and challenged in all the right ways. A place where learning is exciting, mistakes are part of the process, and every child is encouraged to grow with confidence.

That’s exactly what we strive to provide. Our classrooms are lively, nurturing spaces where teachers guide students to think critically, ask questions, and explore boldly. We follow the internationally respected Cambridge curriculum, but what sets us apart is how we pair academic rigour with character, creativity, and global awareness. Our students leave bold, capable, and ready to lead with heart and conviction.
