About Message From Our Proprietor

For over two decades, Mrs. Veronica Mensah has devoted her career to the education and development of young children, guiding thousands of them through the earliest and most formative years of their lives. Across her journey, one conviction has remained unshaken: every child arrives already carrying something remarkable within them, waiting only for the space and guidance to grow.

Her path to founding Brainy Explorers Montessori was built on a rich foundation of experience within some of Ghana’s most respected international school communities. She has served at Ghana International School in Cantonments, the British International School in East Legon Hills, and Healthy Minds International School in Madina, cultivating a deep, cross-cultural understanding of early childhood education along the way. Today, she also works as an educational consultant, lending her expertise to schools and educators seeking to raise the standard of early years learning.

It was this wealth of experience, and an unwavering belief in the potential of every child, that led her to found Brainy Explorers Montessori in new Bortianor. There, she brought together the best of the Montessori approach with the Cambridge Early Years Foundation, GES, and IB frameworks, creating a learning environment where children grow strong not only in literacy and numeracy, but in curiosity and kindness as well. Classes are kept intentionally small, so that every child is known, both by name and by the unique spark that makes them light up to international standards

The school’s motto, Unleashing The Gift, captures the philosophy she has carried throughout her career: every child already holds something extraordinary within them. Her life’s work has simply been to give that gift the room it needs to shine internationally

At Brainy Explorers, we encourage children to

learn, & shape their future.

Brainy Explorers Montessori is a warm, family-centred school in Bortiano, Accra, where children discover the world at their own pace. We follow the Montessori approach: children choose purposeful work from open shelves, use their hands, and learn by doing rather than by being talked at, inside a prepared classroom where everything is within reach and every material has a job to do.

Our curriculum blends the Cambridge Early Years Foundation with GES and IB elements, so children build strong literacy and numeracy alongside curiosity, independence and kindness. Classes stay small enough that every teacher knows each child’s name, temperament and what makes them light up. Our motto says it in three words — Unleashing The Gift. Every child arrives with something already in them, and our work is to give it room to grow.

Founded in the 2022/2023 school year by Madam Veronica Mensah, Brainy Explorers has been serving families across Accra ever since, one child at a time.

What Children Do At Brainy Explorers Daily

Every day balances freedom with gentle structure: time to choose, time to concentrate, time to move, and time to be together.

Interactive Learning & Play

Interactive Learning & Play

Children choose their own work from open shelves — pouring, sorting, building, matching — and play together in ways that quietly teach turn-taking, patience and problem-solving.

Early Literacy & Numeracy

Early Literacy & Numeracy

Sandpaper letters, movable alphabets, bead chains and counting rods let children feel letters and numbers long before they write them, so reading and maths grow out of curiosity rather than drill.

Social & Emotional Development

Social & Emotional Development

Older children guide younger ones. Along the way children learn to name feelings, wait their turn, settle small disagreements and ask for help — the skills that make school feel safe.

Physical & Motor Skills Activities

Physical & Motor Skills Activities

Outdoor play, climbing, sand and water, plus practical-life work like buttoning, sweeping and carrying trays, build the strength and coordination that later support handwriting and independence.

                     .

Ever since my daughter joined your school she's made every one know she's in a good school. Comparing her previous school to Brainy explorers we can tell that the school is really of quality and they know their stuff. I shall recommend to every parent looking for school.

Mrs Martey Parent

We come from America and anytime we come to Ghana my kids join Brainy Explorers Montessori. I was very much in live with books they use. They are not different from the ones my children use in the states. So on seeing these i surely knew they are of international standard.

Vivian Parent

The clean and welcoming environment drew me in immediately we entered to make enquires. We enrolled our boy immediately without thinking twice. His performance is worth celebrating. Thank you. Mrs Heymann and your team.

Litecia Parent

My daughter reading fluently at age 4 buffles me. Her comprehensive skills on everything she reads compelled me to make her sister join. Thumbs up.
